At best, when the youthful mind strives to connect these disjecta membra without having in its possession the means necessary to resurrect them-the historical sequence, the sense of time, the network of causal relations-the student is led to formulate hazardous inductions, fantastic or superficial comparisons, pitiful attempts at synthesis which bring out clearly the disparity between the desire for an integrated kind of knowledge and the fragility of its foundations...
