Oscar Wilde’s statement to me, means when someone criticizes another work of art, they are creating art themselves. Every person has an individual mind that thinks and sees things differently than others. So when someone looks at another art and can look deep enough and speak on what they would make different or add or take away, they are creating art through criticism. I believe this statement is true and to me, anything can be art from graffiti to poems to photography. Art is whatever you want it to be because to everyone, art is different things and has different meanings. I can apply this to my literary criticism research essay by implementing previous examples of criticism I have done in class and try to make the essay better as a whole.

The statement means to me is that the true critic is the artist. A true artist can be inspired by some else's work and resonate inside one's mind , causing them to create or build a whole new art. Art is the true expression of one's inner feelings and ideas. Such as fashion someone can be a true critic about someone else's outfit but build their own outfit from that first outfit they seen first. I can apply this to my Literary Criticism Research Essay by being openminded to multiple different point of views of things. So I can be able to implement different point of views in one essay.

The statement made by Oscar Wilde means that looking at your creations that you have already made can inspire you to create something bigger and better as your next masterpiece. I believe this is true because you see things differently and notice things you did not see at first. Art is a person's unique way to expression how they feel and think. I can apply this to my Literary Criticism Research Essay by thinking like a writer but looking as reader. By that, I means I will read the poem but while I read, I will look at the words as I would if I wrote the poem.

What this statement means to me, is that a person can only critique a work of art is when that critique actually creates that art. To me the only critic of art is the creator itself, because only the creator knows why he/she made that art. Art is something that a person creates or does something and holds that thing dear to them as well as others. Music is art, painting is art, there is many creations of that are held as art like the skill of racing. People call the skill of racing, art. This statement about art can be applied to the essay by raising our awareness of the art behind writing, and get us to focus more on the details of the text.

The statement made by Oscar Wilde to me means that looking back at what has been created already and seeing what elements could make it/something better in the next work of art. I think it is true because you notice certain things afterwards. Art is anything that is created creatively or anything the eye wants it to be. This can apply to the LCR essay by implementing previous essays and trying to contour a better one with this essay.

In my opinion the statement above means that the critic of a  work of art can lead to many more works of art by inspiring others. I completely agree with the statement Oscar Wilde made. There are many different definitions of art and my definition of art is expressions of thoughts and emotions. The quote applied to my Literary Criticism Research essay because I can look at it different perspectives and that will open a passage to other thoughts that I did not think of beforehand.

In Oscar Wilde's essay "The Critic as Artist," it is suggested that the true critic of a work of art is the starting point for a new work of art. This statement claims that every piece of art is continuous and everlasting. By establishing one piece of art, another artist or critic could input additional ideas to expand the previous work. Although this may be true, a part of the old work of art would remain with the new work of art, which does not make it entirely "new". Art is the interpretation of human feelings generally expressed through creative skills. Wilde's essay can apply to my Literary Criticism Essay by allowing me to take on a different perspective of artists and their purpose for engaging in other pieces of literary or artistic work. This new approach may help me generate new stances to interpret the many poems I have read in ENG 242-V01G.

This statement means to me that there is always room for improvement/adaptation. Therefore, when criticizing a 'work of art',  it could be the beginning of a 'new work of art.' I believe this statement is true because not everyone has the same perspective. Art can be a broad spectrum of things that are ever-evolving, such as painting, architecture, literature, music, or performing. This can apply to our literary Literary Criticism Research Essay by perhaps using others point of views and interpreting and expressing it in a way that relates to the Lit. Criticism and how I may interpret it.

I believe this statement means that good, constructive criticism of a work can serve as a way to make an artist's future pieces of art even better. I believe this statement is true because if someone can look back and find any areas of weakness in their work, they can try to improve in those areas the next time. Art can come in many different forms but art functions as a way for someone to express something. This can be applied to the Literary Criticism Research Essay because I can look at other essays I've written, look at common errors I made, and make this essay the best it can be.

Personally, this statement means that finding fault in someone else's artwork could actually provoke and inspire a new piece of artwork. In my opinion, this statement is true. Art is different expressions of humans through paintings, literature, music and much more. I could apply this idea to my essay through the usage of the literary criticism and explaining how it applies in my own interpretation.

In my opinion the statement means that when you start something new there is always something else that can be added into the picture. I believe that it is true because no matter what a person has going on they can always add more positivity into the picture. Art to me is the view of something creative in a person's life. This can apply to the Literary Criticism Research Essay by seeing multiple perspectives to one piece of statement.

This statement means to me that new creative possibilities are created when a criticism is written about a form of art. To go even further in detail I believe the author is stating that the thoughts of the critic is art and his own criticism opens up debates which is an accumulation of different thoughts which are also art. I believe if I use the authors definition of art this statement is true because the criticisms and discussions are seen as art. Art is things that are creative and thoughts are also creative. I could apply this to my literary criticism essay by using background knowledge of critics and discussions formed around the different texts we read and that could help me look into different literary criticism that account for factors outside the text strictly.

In my opinion, I believe the statement implies that art has some subjective quality to it, as in, anything could be considered art if it makes you think. I do agree with the idea that criticism can be a form of art, because I think interpretation itself could a be considered an art form, as it requires a certain creativity to achieve. For me, art can be anything that instills emotion. Art could possibly extend beyond literature, painting, and music. In terms of how I could apply this idea to my essay, I could treat my essay as its own work of art, and maybe keeping this concept in mind while I write will make me put more effort into the essay; treating criticism as art could also make me think differently about the work of literature I am critiquing.

EDIT: I think using art as a foundation for new art could be extended beyond criticism. For example, artists often remix other artist's songs. They aren't critiquing it, but they are using it to create something new. Then again, I think remixing a song could be considered an interpretation and thus be considered a form of criticism. It is a very interesting idea to ponder about.

This statement, to me, means that each critic may inspire another critics artwork. That through the years artwork is just shifted from each creators perspective. I do believe this to be true as it would make since and actually makes art work more interesting. Art is different from other people's perspective and I see art more as a way of communication or a way to express ones feelings. I think we can apply this to our Literary circles by understanding one another's opinions and ideas and being able to work off of one another when we come together as a group. In the end applying this to my essay as I can view it as its own form of art work and my way to express my ideas to the audience in a more intellectual thought process.

This statement, in my opinion, means that the person criticizing the work of art could be starting a new way of art considering the person could take the critic and make the art different (making it a new work of art) or how the person that critic the work of art could then decide to redo the art themselves making it new. So yes I think that is true to an extent, if it is changed it was the original but with modification meaning it could be true. The text book definition of art is "application of human creative skill and imagination, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power." This could be applied in the Literary Criticism Research Essay as discussing the literature written as a form of art, im unsure?

I agree with the statement that the true critic of a work is the starting point of a new work of art because someone's interpretation might be different from  the others. With that  being said that is the  start and meaning of Art to me. This statement means everyone can create something new just based on their thoughts and this is what's so great about art, it's like a chain to new ideas. I could apply this to my Literary Criticism Research Essay to voice my own views on my topic at hand and how I interpret that piece of art.

# data[].attributes.body
Personally, I think the statement means art is based on interpretations and is not confined to the creator's original intent. I agree with Wilde's statement because everyone thinks differently, therefore they will have different interpretations of a piece of literature or art. Just as art is created based on an individual's emotions, the audience has the right to take in their own emotions. I believe this applies to just about any literary criticism essay, not just mine, because the essay is meant to reflect the writer's ideas on a piece of literature which oftentimes highlight different aspects of the literary piece, or may even lead to a new form of thinking about that literary piece.
