Abstract

We must begin with the mistake and transform it into what is true. That is, we must uncover the sources of error; otherwise hearing what is true won’t help us. It cannot penetrate when something is taking its place. To convince someone of what is true, it is not enough to state it; we must find the road from error to truth.

Ludwig Wittgenstein, Remarks on Frazier's Golden Bough 1e (Rush Rhees ed., A.C. Miles trans., 1979 (emphasis in original).
