In the social sciences and the humanities one frequently gets the impression that stylish formulations of research results matter more than the results themselves. Does this imply that we need to be persuaded to accept the truth? Or does it lead to the conclusion that a story well told is the best approximation to truth that science has to offer? Or is there an alternative to these two options, neither of which is satisfactory? Is it not the case that both rhetoric and story telling can each claim to bring their own specific potential to discourse?
