Take a point-of-view based on the "Psychological" Critical Lens modeled after Deborah Appleman's book Critical Encounters in High School English: Teaching Literary Theory to Adolescents.

Essential Question: How can we apply psychology and psychoanalytical criticism to gain insights into the behavior and motivations of authors and characters?

Central Concerns: expression, personality, state of mind, designs of author

Critical Assumptions:
1. An author reveals repressed wishes or fears in a literary text.
2. Creative writing, like dreaming, can unlock the subconscious.
3. There are some patterns such as anxiety, repression, fear of death that can be applied both to individual characters and authors as well as generally to human beings.

What to do:
1. Look for an underlying psychological subtext in the work.
2. Discover key biographical moments and relate them to the text.
3. Try to explain the behavior of the characters in psychological terms, such as projection, repression, fear (of abandonment, sexuality, etc.) .
