Michael Blome-Tillmann

Knowledge and Presuppositions

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Michael Blome-Tillmann presents an innovative account of epistemic contextualism, based on the idea that pragmatic presuppositions play a central role in the semantics of knowledge attributions. He shows how the theory can resolve sceptical paradoxes and puzzles, and illuminate concerns central to epistemology and philosophy of language.
