It is a main theme in the book that what we typically call literature is written to be read and freely experienced – it is “experience-inviting discourse” meant for “experience-oriented reading”. This central idea leads to a number of important literary-theoretical topics. Among the issues addressed in depth are the structure of verbal communication, the makeup of the concept of literature, the psychology of literary reading, and the relationship between literary criticism and experience-oriented reading. On this last point the author underlines the difference in purpose between critical and experience-oriented reading. What we typically call literature is written for offering worthwhile experiences, not for being made the object of literary-critical observations, no matter how valuable these may be in their own way. 04 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475/fillm.22.png 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_jpg/9789027233844.jpg 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_tif/9789027233844.tif 06 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_front/fillm.22.hb.png 07 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/125/fillm.22.png 25 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_back/fillm.22.hb.png 27 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/3d_web/fillm.22.hb.png 10 01 JB code fillm.22.prelim i vi 6 Prelim pages 1 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Prelim pages</TitleText> 10 01 JB code fillm.22.toc vii x 4 Table of contents 2 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Table of contents</TitleText> 10 01 JB code fillm.22.preface xi xii 2 Preface 3 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Series editor’s preface</TitleText> 10 01 JB code fillm.22.pre xiii xiv 2 Preface 4 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Preface</TitleText> 10 01 JB code fillm.22.contrib xv 1 To be specified 5 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Author bio</TitleText> 10 01 JB code fillm.22.int 1 3 3 Chapter 6 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Introduction</TitleText> <Subtitle textformat="02">Three questions</Subtitle> 10 01 JB code fillm.22.p1 5 1 Section header 7 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Part I.
