The main difference between revising and editing a text are:

  • Revision involves making an edit of a text to improve on it.
  • Editing involves making changes to a text as part of a writing process.

What is the meaning of the word "Hysteria"?

This refers to the emotional state of a person where he is in deep panic and is not thinking clearly.

Hence, we can see that from the complete text, on the 272th page, there is the use of the word "hysteria" which shows the character in panic and makes a foolish decision.
