Question
A Merve Emre book jokingly examines “bad” performers of this activity as defined in lectures given in the 1950s at Cornell. Norman Holland’s study of laughter applied a theory named for performers of this activity, who form communities bound by cultural assumptions according to Stanley Fish. Performers of this activity are the subject of an “affective fallacy” often opposed to another group’s “intentional fallacy.” Viktor Shklovsky analyzed how this activity results in new perspectives through a process of (*) defamiliarization. Samuel Taylor Coleridge theorized that unlikely occurrences encountered during this activity are accepted via a“suspension of disbelief.” A book on how to perform this activity like a professor by Thomas Foster explains its“close” form. For 10 points, name this activity done to enjoy the work of Herman Melville. ■END■
