| Introduction | It is (to describe it figuratively) as if an author were to make a slip of the pen, and that this clerical error became conscious of being such--perhaps it was no error but in a far higher sense was an essential constituent in the whole exposition--it is then as if this clerical error would revolt against the author, out of hatred for him were to forbid him to correct it, and were to say, "No, I will not be erased, I will stand as a witness against thee, that thou art a very poor writer." -Anti Climacus, SUD |
