Where does the work of editing fit into this idea of reading? In other words, how does an editor’s reading of a text write it? The more I think about it, the more it seems to me that an edited text is always the product of a shared vision: that of the author and the editor. The published version then contains a kind of subatomic tension between the author’s writing, the editor’s “writing”, and the reader’s “writing”.
