Description:Modern epistemology did not begin with virtues. It began with anxiety. From the seventeenth century onward, epistemology increasingly defined itself as the discipline tasked with answering a narrow but devastating question: How can we be sure that what we believe is true? This question, sharpened by skepticism, pushed philosophers to search for criteria, rules, and conditions that would guarantee knowledge. The result was a long tradition focused less on knowers and more on beliefs, propositions, and justificatory structures. Knowledge became something like a mechanical output: if the right inputs were in place, knowledge followed. For a long time, this approach seemed adequate. Then, in the twentieth century, it collapsed under its own cleverness. The re-emergence of Virtue Epistemology is best understood as a response to this collapse. It represents a shift away from asking only What conditions must a belief satisfy to count as knowledge? toward asking What kind of cognitive agent must one be to know well? This book begins from the conviction that this shift was not cosmetic but necessary. Virtue Epistemology does not reject truth, justification, or reliability. What it rejects is the idea that these can be understood independently of the agent who believesWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
