Errors

How, and under what conditions is error productive, and is there anything consistent to its productiveness? What kinds of errors and mistakes are constitutive, for instance, of science, political praxis, art, philosophy and psychoanalysis?


How, and under what conditions is error productive, and is there anything consistent to its productiveness? What kinds of errors and mistakes are constitutive, for instance, of science, political praxis, art, philosophy and psychoanalysis?

John Roberts is Professor of Art and Aesthetics at the University of Wolverhampton and author of The Necessity of Errors.
