A [philosophical] framework holding that the humanities must contend with irreducible multiplicity of contexts—that texts, events, and artifacts are shaped by overlapping contexts that cannot be reduced to a single frame. A literary work exists in the context of its author's life, its literary tradition, its historical moment, its language, its subsequent reception, its translation across cultures, its adaptation into other media. Multicontextualism insists that [understanding] requires mapping these multiple contexts and how they interact. It demands that humanists resist the temptation to find a single key that unlocks a text, instead embracing [the complexity] of multiple contextual frames that together constitute meaning.
