Lay epistemology and the Populist's playbook: The roles of epistemological identity and expressive epistemology

Plato’s Epistemology

2009
This chapter examines Plato’s views on knowledge. The constant themes in his dialogues are as follows. The first is that knowledge is systematic. Over specific areas, such as mathematics and morality, and even conceivably for reality as a whole, items of knowledge are systematically interconnected, and it is the task of inquiry in those areas to reveal

The epistemological status of a naturalized epistemology

Inquiry, 1983
Philosophically inclined psychologists and psychologically inclined philosophers often hold that the substantive discoveries of psychology can provide an empirical foundation for epistemology.

Boltzmann and Epistemology

Synthese, 1999
This paper is an attempt to clarify why Ludwig Boltzmann from about 1895 to 1905 seemed to adopt a series of extreme epistemological positions, ranging from phenomenalism to pragmatism, while emphatically rejecting what he called ‘metaphysics’ (by which he meant all traditional philosophy).

Normative epistemology and naturalized epistemology∗

Inquiry, 1988
A number of philosophers have argued that a naturalized epistemology cannot be normative, and thus that the norms that govern science cannot themselves be established empirically. Three arguments for this conclusion are here developed and then responded to on behalf of naturalized epistemology. The response is developed in three stages.
