Summary (noun) means: a written text that condenses the associated parts of a larger whole into a concise spatial arrangement. It emerges from part, relation, structure, arrangement: The associated parts of a large whole are placed into a concise spatial structure through written marks. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 14, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
