Arguably Edith is a way of discovering Hubs (ie, the people - or technically the pages - we use to get links from).
Nick’s right. The pages we extract links from are in fact Hubs using Kleinberg’s terminology.
To clarify the terminology, an Authority is a page that contains valuable information on a topic, and is linked to by many Hubs. A Hub is a page that links to many Authorities. So a pages Authority score (or Hub score) is defined in terms of hypertext linkage structure.
The original document where Kleinberg introduces these concepts can be found at http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/kleinber/auth.pdf (entitled Authoritative Sources in a Hyperlinked Environment).
