| Simultaneity: Simultaneity in philosophy does not only mean that two events take place at the same time, but rather that different levels of time come together in an act of understanding and create a deeper connection between past, present and future. Simultaneity consists in the fact that we always understand a text against the background of its history of impact, i.e. against the background of the interpretations that others have already made before us._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

Sören Kierkegaard on Simultaneity - Dictionary of Arguments
Gadamer I 132 Simultaneity/Kierkegaard/Gadamer: [The] concept of simultaneity originates, as is well known, from Kierkegaard, who gave it a special theological imprint(1). "Simultaneity" with Kierkegaard does not mean being at the same time, but formulates a task. This task is set for the believer, to communicate what is not at the same time, one's own presence and the saving act of Christ, and to communicate this totally with each other that they nevertheless experience it as a present (instead of at a distance back then) and that it is taken seriously. Gadamer: Conversely, the simultaneity of aesthetic consciousness is based on the concealment of the task set with simultaneity. >Simultaneity/Gadamer, >Aesthetic consciousness. 1.
