Confusion and Clarity

I've always thought it easy to do the Reader's Response Theory, because it allows me to view the work in whatever fashion I do or would like to. But, what I love is New Historicism. I love the idea that where we are(in time and geographically) and what is going on around us will always effect our writing. I think that analyzing a piece from this view would not only allow me to create my own ideas of what is going on, but it would allow me to learn what has been taking place in this author's life and society and how it influenced the work. I have always loved history and how it plays a role in all of our lives.
As far as some of the others go, I was pretty confused by them! Postmodern Criticism was the most confusing to me. And Feminist Criticism is the one I am least interested in.
