a form of a text that is a next type after a previous one

Edition (noun) means: a form of a text that is a next type after a previous one. It emerges from form, text, type, previous: The text's form is arranged as a next type that follows a previous one in time. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 15, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
