Abstract: | This paper discusses the contested role of images in electronic editions, and summarizes some of the chief arguments for their
inclusion. I then argue that, to truly determine the importance of images to the function of electronic editions, we must
understand the contribution the image makes to the form of textual knowledge provided by the edition. I suggest a distinction
between editions which are primarily pedagogical in their aims, those which aim above all at scholarly authority, and those
which attempt to provide textual information as high-quality data which can be analysed and processed. I conclude that the
latter represents the most significant future trend in electronic editing.
