'All the central questions of humanity are beyond science.' (science not superior to art)(Column)

Article Abstract:

It has long been assumed that science and literature are incompatible, and this view has now become so ingrained that few people think to challenge it. Science is often seen as antagonistic to the human spirit, but is respected for its clear achievements. It is now time to consider literature and science as complementary, as they once shared a tradition which was bound up with a magical view of the universe.
