The Perception of Our Errors
In this weeks reading, Williams' "Phenomenology of Error" discusses in depth the severity of writing errors. He mentions how some errors are more profound than many others. He even shows how some authors who write about these errors do not always follow their own teachings. Williams also looks at who determines the errors that are acceptable or not acceptable. Every reader who looks at a writing will find many errors, but every reader will find errors in different places. Since every reader will find different errors it makes me think if there can ever be a perfect paper. Although the writer may believe it to be perfect there will always be someone out there to find something wrong with it. Williams looks at these errors in great detail, further than i could comprehend. In the end i'm sure authors will keep making these errors and readers will find more errors to fix.
