From Work to Text summary

Text is not a physical manifestation, but rather Text is a produced experience. It is a demonstrational process that is a force against old classifications. Instead of fitting into the ideas of hierarchy and genre, Text is a process all on its own. Text is only a deferred reaction to a work, and as a deferred reaction, the Text is experienced and created as a response to a work in a single moment in time. It is ongoing; disconnections, overlapping, and variations in nature cause Text to span across Marxism and Freudianism. It is a complex idea that is meant to be thought about and interpreted, yet it cannot be interpreted because of it exists beyond boundaries. It is something that is meant more for the practice of writing and the enjoyment of it more so than the interpretation. Text is simply itself; it cannot be interpreted beyond the idea of Text.
