  • The Appearance of Ignorance

    Knowledge, Skepticism, and Context, Volume 2

    by Keith DeRose ...
    Contextualism, the view that the epistemic standards a subject must meet in order for a claim attributing "knowledge" to her to be true do vary with context, has been hotly debated in epistemology and philosophy of language during the last few decades. This volume presents, develops, and defends contextualist solutions to two of the stickiest problems in epistemology: the puzzles of skeptical ... Read more

  • The Case for Contextualism

    Knowledge, Skepticism, and Context, Vol. 1

    by Keith DeRose ...
    It's an obvious enough observation that the standards that govern whether ordinary speakers will say that someone knows something vary with context: What we are happy to call "knowledge" in some ("low-standards") contexts we'll deny is "knowledge" in other ("high-standards") contexts. But do these varying standards for when ordinary speakers will attribute knowledge, and for when they are in some ... Read more

  • The Inessential Indexical: On the Philosophical Insignificance of Perspective and the First Person

    On the Philosophical Insignificance of Perspective and the First Person

    by Herman Cappelen, Josh Dever ...
    Series series Context And Content
    When we represent the world in language, in thought, or in perception, we often represent it from a perspective. We say and think that the meeting is happening now, that it is hot here, that I am in danger and not you; that the tree looks larger from my perspective than from yours. The Inessential Indexical is an exploration and defense of the view that perspectivality is a philosophically shallow ... Read more

  • Assessment Sensitivity

    Relative Truth and its Applications

    by John MacFarlane ...
    Series series Context & Content
    John MacFarlane debates how we might make sense of the idea that truth is relative, and how we might use this idea to give satisfying accounts of parts of our thought and talk that have resisted traditional methods of analysis. Although there is a substantial philosophical literature on relativism about truth, going back to Plato's Theaetetus, this literature (both pro and con) has tended to focus ... Read more

  • Reference, Truth and Conceptual Schemes

    A Defense of Internal Realism

    by G. Forrai ...
    Series Book 296 - Synthese Library
    HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The purpose of the book is to develop internal realism, the metaphysical-episte mological doctrine initiated by Hilary Putnam (Reason, Truth and History, "Introduction", Many Faces). In doing so I shall rely - sometimes quite heavily - on the notion of conceptual scheme. I shall use the notion in a somewhat idiosyncratic way, which, however, has some affinities with the ways ...

  • Assertion

    On the Philosophical Significance of Assertoric Speech

    by Sanford C. Goldberg ...
    Sanford C. Goldberg presents a novel account of the speech act of assertion. He defends the view that this type of speech act is answerable to a constitutive norm--the norm of assertion. The hypothesis that assertion is answerable to a robustly epistemic norm is uniquely suited to explain assertion's philosophical significance--its connections to other philosophically interesting topics. These ... Read more
