Faber feels that the major purpose of Eissler's Discourse is to advance realistic criticism, which involves the equation of characters with living persons, as opposed to phenomenologic criticism. Faber declares that both are essential and faults Eissler for being one-sided. He also criticizes Eissler for arriving at judgments with insufficient evidence from the text.
