AB Are the readings of Luke being proposed in this volume evidence of readers finding in the text what they want? Different readings of the same text can be related to different manifestations of ""the reader"". Yet a responsible reading of the text implies taking the text as a speech-act functioning in a communicative context. The role of the author and the context therefore becomes important again. The concept of foolproof composition is relevant too as it implies the exclusion of the possibility of a counterreading of the text. The phenomenon of the inspiration of a sacred text also functions as a constraint.
