Their authors are a natural and irresistible aristocracy in every society, and, more than kings or emperors, exert an influence on mankind.

And there's no help for it: you only find out what you ought to have known by pretending to know at least some of it already.It doesn't matter how obscure or arcane or esoteric your place of publication may be: some sweet law ensures that the person who should be scrutinizing your work eventually does do so.
