Beschreibungen/Notizen
In extreme instances, it can be interventionist, seeking to change what the text provides as notionally given—and here, as elsewhere in the book, the influence of Pierre Bayard can be detected, most particularly the dimension of his work that Bayard has designated as a kind of "critique d'amélioration." The playful, puckish tone in which Decout invites us to serve an apprenticeship in bad reading functions [End Page 221] to leaven more sober considerations. For at its most fundamental level, Éloge du mauvais lecteur is an eloquent, ardent brief for a more mobile, agile, resourceful, creative sort of reading, one that might accommodate that most elusive and precious of readerly attitudes: joy.
