Different types of readings

What is a dominant reading?
A dominant reading is when the reader understands and appreciates what the writer is saying. The point may or may not be intentional, however the reader is oblivious to the authors intention.

What is an oppositional reading?
An oppositional reading is one when the reader has the opposite point of view.

What is a negotiated reading?
A negotiated reading is when the reader shares some of the same view as the writer, however they also have their own opinions on the text which reflect their own personal opinion.
