Summary/Abstract: The subversion of Professor Martin's essays lies precisely in the fact that he equally defends the evidence, the fake and the truth, posing, in turn, in the body of each of them. The great elegance of the approach rises from the tolerant, pluralistic and dialogical vision of the evidence; from the strength to empathize even with evil, precisely to understand it to its fullest extent. As a man of nuances, he slips into the cloak of radicalism not to destroy it, but to understand it, because "in a confrontation of opinions or ideas, in everyday life or in intellectual disputes, nuance implies a strengthening of one's own positions by even the respect shown to opposing positions; withdrawal is actually a safer repositioning.
