Meaning of "relevance" in the sentence?

While some may lable background studies on a book "boring" and "irrelevant," we argue just the opposite-that knowing the background of a passage can clarify its meaning and beighten our understanding of its relevance.

What do you mean by "relevance", the last word in the context?
Without any change in the meaning of the sentence, what word can be replaced "relevance" with ?

Thank you for your answer.
Well, I did look up the word "relevance" in the dictionary before posting the question.
Though I understood the meaning of the word itself, I couldn't understand the sentence completely before posting the question.

Please understand my situation and academic ability.

Well, now I've substituted the words you taught for "relevance", I still don't
