In some cases like the word vice, the negative connotation stems from a direct definition of the word(vice means wicked, but another definition is 'a substitute for' so 'vice president'). In other cases, word may be used in a culture to identify a group or individual that is portrayed negatively, thus modifying the inherent definition of the word to better portray how society thinks of the word.

Literary theory is the __________ through which a critic evaluates, analyzes, or interprets a piece of literature.
Mamont248 [21]
I feel that the missing word is most likely "lens" - check if it's among your options.

When something is compared to a lens through which the word is seen, it means that the world is seen through a certain perspective, that it's using a certain interpretation: here that of literary theory.
