Justifying Memory

by Matthew (Milwaukee School Of Engineering) Frise

~~74,35€~~ 66,92€ 10% OFF

free shipping

 This Element examines many philosophical theories that attempt to explain the epistemological limits and powers of memory. A traditional view is that our epistemic justification from memory in the present directly depends on the past. Just the way the present is directly matters for the justification we have from memory now.

Sincerity And Insincerity

by Neri (University Of Turin) Marsili

~~74,35€~~ 66,92€ 10% OFF

 Sincerity is essential to communication: without a norm of sincerity, we could hardly trust what other people tell us. This Element offers a review of philosophical work on the nature of sincerity and its epistemic value. It puts forward a novel account of what sincerity and insincerity are, and dives into the grey area between the two.

The Indispensability Of Intuitions

by Marc A. (The University Of Texas) Moffett

~~24,33€~~ 21,90€ 10% OFF

 This Element argues that intuitions are a ubiquitous and familiar feature of our cognitive lives. Intuitions need to be treated as their own kind of sui generis intentional states. Eschewing intuitions undermines our knowledge on a very broad scale; they are epistemically indispensable.

Aesthetic Knowledge

by Jon (University Of Nottingham) Robson

~~24,33€~~ 21,90€ 10% OFF

 How do we arrive at aesthetic knowledge? This Element argues that aesthetic knowledge is both valuable and attainable, but canonical philosophical (and folk) views of how we attain it are mistaken. It surveys some recent arguments against the reliability of aesthetic perception and in favour of other, more social, sources of aesthetic knowledge.

Self-deceivers need not benefit from deception, and they need not end up with epistemically unjustified beliefs. Self-deception need not be adaptive.

Disagreement

by Diego E. (National Council For Scientific And Technical Research ) Machuca

~~74,35€~~ 66,92€ 10% OFF

 This Element examines types of disagreement-motivated skepticism in ancient philosophy, ethics, philosophy of religion, and general epistemology. It favors suspension of judgment as the appropriate response to the realization of disagreement. Personal information and self-trust can rarely function as symmetry breakers in favor of one's views.
