Post-colonialism and U.S. ethnic theorists emphasize the role of the author and assert that people's differences in culture and experience are important to a work. Do you think the next wave of theorists will again believe that emphasizing people's differences is offensive and that as humans, all people share basic assumptions, regardless of their experience. I seems that it criticism, if one view is prominent than eventually someone will come and take the opposite view, This is seen in Wimsatt and Beardsley's belief in the death of the author that has been replaced by postcolonialism and U.S. Ethnic Theory.
What do you think will be the next popular theory in criticism?
