Two Varieties of Knowledge
About this episode
Gerhard Ernst (Stuttgart) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium titled "Two Varieties of Knowledge". Abstract:
The analysis of knowledge is, as it seems, a doomed project. Many definitions have been proposed – only to be refuted immediately. In this paper I argue that the reason for this predicament is that there are two slightly different varieties of knowledge which have to be analysed separately. So, the reason why no definition of knowledge is satisfactory is that there is no such defintion – but maybe there are two!
