ABSTRACT
One of the most telling characteristics of the interrogation were itsimpasses, which were interpreted by both sides as an indication that they could not conduct a dialogue with the other, not even one of a polemic nature. These dead ends were the outcome of a profound disagreement over the rules of the argument, as each of the sides perceived evidence and proof in a different manner. In effect, we find that the two sides could not relate to each other's arguments.
