Template:Short description Template:Italic title Self-Consuming Artifacts: The Experience of Seventeenth-Century Literature (Berkeley: University of California Press, 1972, Template:ISBN) is book of literary criticism by American literary critic Stanley Fish. In it, Fish examines various English writers from the seventeenth century, including Sir Francis Bacon,[1] George Herbert,[2] John Bunyan,[3] and John Milton. Since it explores the reader's experience of reading the text, it can be considered an example of reader-response[4] criticism.

The book has been described variously as "influential",[2][5] "a classic of scholarship".[6] and as one of the author's "two revolutionary books"[7]
