sciolist
sciolist - n., one with a superficial knowledge of a subject who claims profound learning.
Sciolism is that little learning that's a dangerous thing. From Late Latin sciolus, one who knows a little, diminutive of scius, knowing, from scire, to know -- and thus a cognate of a little science.
