Abstract

Reading is not a process of seeking for a single meaning in the text but an act of creating a variety of meanings from it. It doesn't mean, however, that it can be arbitrarily pursued without any restriction. For, first of all, the reader is forced to follow the order of language arranged by the writer. In so doing, the reader may be so profoundly affected by the other's language as to undergo a radical transformation of self. Thus the creation of a new meaning entails the creation of new self. We cannot describe the text in a constative way. All we can do is to performatively plunge into interaction between our own self and language not of our own.
