guys, what exactly is audience reception / perception in english? what am i meant to discuss about that?
Well what is your audience? What is the target audience? What are the contextual values/themes of that time. An audience in Medieval England is much more receptive to biblical imagery/allusion due to the influence of religion, however if you take an audience from the modern day, its very possible that this biblical reference will either be not understood and/or have less impact. Consider the story of King Richard, he might have been vilified in Shakespeare's time due to his Machiavellian nature and neglect of divine order but in modern times might be seen an anti-hero since he chooses to rebel against a society which treats him poorly by his birth/looks.
Basically think about the audience, who they are, what is the social milieu that influences them and what values they are engrained with - and how this affects how the story/narrative is interpreted as. A villain could be seen as a hero with the change in morals/values over time, its important to acknowledge that.
