Does it matter if he feels poorly about a work, or middling about it, or
ecstatic and can discuss that feeling? Would the general mechanism of reacting
to a work of art, whatever the feeling, not be the same?

I perceive X, which stimulates such and such a reaction (provokes a feeling or
series or cluster of feelings), which I construe in a certain way or put into
a given context, and I conclude that X wowed me/bored me/appalled me.
