Close reading
In literary criticism, close reading is the careful, sustained interpretation of a brief passage of a text. It emphasizes the particular over the general, paying precise attention to individual words, syntax, and the order in which the sentences unfold ideas, as well as the formal structures of the text. Close reading involves considering both what is said in a passage (content) and how it is said (form), in order to make observations and offer interpretive insight.
