ITT: we make off-the-cuff numeric appraisals of different theories of literature. Rate your choice of theories out of ten. An explanation isn't necessary but you are free to include one if it pleases you. I think this will be an interesting experiment to see whether any sort of consensus is generated (I expect an almost universal low-to-zero mark for all theories, or a low-to-zero mark for contemporary theories)
