No wonder you ask, as a graphic designer ;-)
EPUB is one format for e-books, destined to be read on an e-book
reader (translation: a Kindle, Nook or similar). Think about EPUB as a
structured XML-file with searchable text, a TOC and links back and
forth, perhaps with illustrations and often a graphical front page
(the cover).
An epub is a zipped file, which when unzipped, has directories for
text, which is in xhtml format, images, fonts, styles, potentially
audio and video.
If you simply change the name of some file, like example.epub to
example.zip, you can unzip the file and see its structure and
contents. This would be one way of importing an epub to Scribus, and
for some uses, might in the end be less work and show better results.

Thank you all for the useful information and discussion!
I originally asked the question because I want to import some books from
Internet Archive into Scribus, edit them with Scribus (text and/or image
frames), and then export the final PDF.
