Summary

This quote suggests that for writers to arise and make an impact, there needs to be a dedicated and engaged group of readers to appreciate and support them. By "spanning" a generation, it implies that it takes time for readers to inspire, motivate, and influence new writers to emerge and continue the literary tradition. Essentially, readers play a vital role in the evolution and growth of literature by nurturing and providing an audience for the writers of each generation.
