Ortega Y Gasset Quotes
The Specialist Serves As A Striking Concrete Example Of The Species, Making Clear To Us The Radical Nature Of The Novelty. For, Previously, Men Could Be Divided Simply Into The Learned And The Ignorant, Those More Or Less The One, And Those More Or Less The Other. But Your Specialist Cannot Be Brought In Under Either Of These Two Categories. He Is Not Learned , For He Is Formally Ignorant Of All That Does Not Enter Into His Speciality; But Neither Is He Ignorant, Because He Is "a Scientist," And "knows" Very Well His Own Tiny Portion Of The Universe. We Shall Have To Say That He Is A Learned Ignoramus, Which Is A Very Serious Matter, As It Implies That He Is A Person Who Is Ignorant, Not In The Fashion Of The Ignorant Man, But With An The Petulance Of One Who Is Learned In His Own Special Line.
