Transgressing the Boundaries Toward a Transformative Hermeneutics of Quantum Gravity
--Alan Sokal, Social Text #46/47, pp. 217-252 (spring/summer 1996). The first "science hoax paper". It was, in fact, a cleverly disguised [and hilarious] parody, which had only the appearance of serious scholarly work: In the very first paragraph, Sokal criticizes the "dogma" [sic] according to which "there exists an external world, whose properties are independent of any individual human being".
