interpretive community

An interpretive community is a group of people who share similar perspectives, backgrounds, or values that influence how they understand and interpret texts, messages, or cultural experiences. For example, fans of a particular genre or members of a specific cultural group may interpret stories or symbols in ways that reflect their shared experiences or beliefs. This shared perspective shapes how members make sense of information, shaping their reactions and understandings. Essentially, an interpretive community provides a common lens through which its members perceive and interpret the world around them.
