All Reading is Reading In [on hold]
George Lakeoff in "More than cool reason" says:
But, because of the nature of language, all reading is reading in. Even if one sticks to the conventional, shared meanings of the words, one will necessarily be evoking all of the knowledge in the schemas in which those words are defined.
Can you explain what does "all reading is reading in" mean?

Hi mBabaee! I would suggest including the context from the sentence before in your question. The phrase "reading in" occurs in almost the same form ("reading meanings into"). Also, in the same paragraph, the practice is given another name: construal. If you look up those two items and are still confused, I'm happy to help clarify further.

This question is off-topic as not specific to English. There are no English-specific idioms, metaphors, puns or double-entendres or anything like that. The sentence means quite literally what it is saying, word for word. You can translate it word-for-word into any other language, including your mother tongue, and that will be its exact meaning. Which of the words involved do you have trouble translating: "all", "reading", "is", or "in". Please clarify.
