The reading passage talks about the American literature and early 20th century's influential authors. And tells that the author Gertrude Stein's work is little overrated by the critics. On the other hand, the leturer opposes that opinion and presents reasons to contradict points mentioned in the reading passage.
First, the reading passage portrays that Stein's work lacks with conventional punctuation and her writings are difficult to understand because of the long, unbroken chain of words without commas or period. Whereas, the lecturer disagrees with the point by saying that the author of passage didn't read Stein's prose. The lecturer posits that the punctuation is unnecessary to evaluate a writer's prose skill. And also she feels that it is a unique perspective to consider in Stein's work.
Second, the author of passage claims that Stein's works did not communicate her thoughts cleary and did not convey her emotions in her writings which made her works inaccessible to readers. But, the lecturer posits that the passage author ignores the changes happened in poetry. And she feels that Stein's works are massive literary influence in history. She supports her claim by explaining that highlighted features of Ernest Hemingway such as simple words and expressions were originally influenced from Gertrude Stein's writings.
Finally, the reading passage author thinks that Stein's work is criticized positively because of her social connections and that fact can not give her historical importance in the American literature. The author also insists that one author's work has more weigh than their social connections whereas the lectures denies this fact by positing that the connections alone can not make some one famous.
