overlap困难

Precisely because readers from different historical periods, places and social experiences produce different but overlapping readings of the same words on the page — including for texts that engage with fundamental human concerns — debates about texts can play an important role in social discussion of beliefs and values.

正是因为来自不同历史时期、不同地方、有着不同社会经历的读者，会对纸面上同样的文字产生不同但又相互重叠的解读——包括那些涉及人类根本关切的文本——关于文本的争论才能在有关信仰和价值观的社会讨论中发挥重要作用。
