Discussion

Explanation:

(a) is the correct answer.
The writer is the creator (subject) of the ‘literary work’ (object). To the writer, the very act of writing is
essential, not his literary work. On the other hand, the reader (subject) is essential as the revealer of this literary work/the object of someone else’s creation.
But the reader is not essential to the existence of this literary work, which can exist even if these is no one
to read it. This is how the dialectic of perception and creation manifests itself in the art of writing. Only option (a) captures the essence.
