The Ethics of Belief

Tulane Studies in Philosophy, 1966
This title covers two hauntingly brief explorations, one occurring in Chisholm’s book on Perceiving: A Philosophical Study,1 the other in an acute probing by Firth.2 In what follows, I shall confine myself to: (1) briefly state Chisholm’s proposal to formulate expressions, featuring epistemic terms, in what is usually called “normative” language;
