WiSe 23/24: The Function and Value of Knowledge (Englisch)
Mike Deigan
Kommentar
Knowledge seems to matter a great deal to us. We want to know the answers to various questions and are often willing to pay a high price to find out. And in evaluating other people's actions, we often care about what they knew and when they knew it. But why should we care so much about knowledge in particular? Is it important only because true belief is important? And why, for that matter, is true belief important?
In this seminar we will examine some of the roles knowledge plays in our lives and evaluate a range of proposals attempting to explain its significance. Readings will be drawn primarily from contemporary analytic philosophy.
