• W98392568 abstract "If reader-response criticism has allowed us to acknowledge the general subjectivity inherent in the reading experience, other approaches, including feminist theory and gender studies, have helped us to be more cognizant of the assumptions and ideologies influencing a reader's response to the text. At the same time, not only has the line between reader and story-maker become blurred but also the lines between literary and non-literary texts and between disciplines. Researchers have shown how a variety of groups, including historians, psychologists and even jurors, function not simply as readers of reality but as creators of projected realities. In legal studies, for example, as more attention is being paid to the process by which decisions are made, are being seen not as abstract weighers of evidence or as amateurs struggling to understand intricacies of legal arguments but as narrators or story-tellers who fill in gaps and determine relevancy in the process of creating what they believe are plausible plotlines. Psychologists Nancy Pennington and Reid Hastie have hypothesized that in order to reach a decision, jurors impose a narrative organization on trial information (194). Although might construct more than one story, each juror will ultimately opt for the one which seems most coherent or most plausible according to the juror's own generic expectations about what makes a complete story and according to the juror's experience or experiences and about the social world (196). In other words, the juror relies on what he/she knows or believes to be true about people and the way they act to construct the which the juror then uses to reach a verdict. Commentators on trials engage in a very similar process of subjective construction, of which a revealing example may be found in the various publications pertaining to a controversial 19th-century criminal case - that of Lieutenant Emile de La Ronciere, who in 1835 was tried and convicted on the charge of attempted rape of Marie de Morell. The case was notorious in its time, mainly because of the social status and family connections of both the accused and the alleged victim, but the case has continued to attract considerable attention in the 20th century. It figures prominently in H. B. Irving's Last Studies in Criminology (1921) and W. H. Williamson's Annals of Crime: Some Extraordinary Women (1930), as well as in Rene Floriot's Les Erreurs Judiciaries (1968) and Rayner Heppenstall's French Crime in the Romantic Age (1970) - Heppenstall also published an English translation of Floriot's book, When Justice Falters (1970). In addition to these non-fictional accounts, there is the novelistic incorporation of the case by John Fowles in his The French Lieutenant's Woman (1969). An examination of the various presentations reveals not only the apparent cause of the case's continued popularity - a supposedly false conviction on sexual assault charges - but also a number of assumptions or beliefs about the social world which generally rely on a loose use of terms and concepts from psychiatry to lend scientific credibility to a negative reading of Marie de Morell's character. In turn, locating Fowles's depiction of his protagonist, Sarah Woodruff, within this context of commentaries enables us to see that in spite of his enlightened attempt to expose the limitations of the Victorian medical perspective - which sees non-conformity and unpredictability as signs of mental disorder - Fowles presents an equally problematic identification of hysteria with mysteriousness and an association of mystery with the essence of femininity. The 20th-century commentators on the La Ronciere case, working primarily from the trial transcripts and contemporary accounts of the trial, are remarkably in agreement in the way in which they construct their narratives of the events leading up to the trial and the way in which they interpret Marie de Morell. …" @default.
