Description
Summary:This article is a reply to four critics of my book The Epistemology of Reading and Interpretation. In particular, I reply to two main concerns: (1) that I have an improper respect for authorial intentions in the interpretation of texts; (2) that my approach cannot accommodate the phenomenon of "existentially understanding" a text, which is so important when it comes to reading the Bible. My reply to the first concern is that there are very good reasons to give authorial intentions pride of place in interpretative processes. My reply to the second concern is that my approach does accommodate the phenomenon mentioned.
