The Knowledge of Ignorance: From Genesis to Jules Verne - Cambridge Studies in French
Andrew Martin
This highly original study is concerned with the theory of knowledge. It approaches the subject in a new way by exploring the recurrent paradox which equates pure ignorance with perfect knowledge, twin ideals free from the impurities and imperfections of discourse.
