!['[i]n spite of the fact that in the 1980s editorial circles
witnessed a paradigm shift in which the concept of a
definitive end product was widely replaced by the
concept of process in which multiple texts represent the
work, nevertheless, the physical limitations of print
editions and the linear reading habits of most readers
have continued to force the predominance of clear-
reading texts as a primary feature of new scholarly
editions.'

'The most important point arising from recent theoretical discussions and computer capabilities may be the inescapable recognition by the general reader that any reading text is merely a representative of a work, not the work itself; for there are other representations of it crowding in demanding attention as well.'
