The Intuitive Basis of Knowledge (Classic Reprint): An Epistemological Inquiry: An Epistemological Inquiry (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Explore how knowledge really arises from our immediate experience and intuitive judgments.
This edition surveys competing theories of knowledge—from naive realism to empiricist and rationalist traditions—through the lens of the intuitional theory. It explains how thinking can be both disciplined and creatively responsive, balancing data given in experience with the mind’s active role. This book traces the evolution of epistemology in the nineteenth century, weighing claims about how we know the world, the role of perception, and the limits of objective certainty. It examines key thinkers and ideas, showing how a careful, skeptical approach can lead to a more modest yet resilient understanding of knowledge.
- Understand the difference between experiential content and the mind’s constructive activity in knowing.
- See how intuition, analysis, and criticism shape theories of truth and judgment.
- Compare empiricist, rationalist, and empirio-critical positions, including the work of Avenarius and Spencer.
- Learn how a carefully framed metaphysical view can stay empirical while remaining modest about certainty.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound and enduring philosophical question of what it means to know. Examining the limitations of individual experience, the author explores how knowledge can act as a bridge, connecting us to a world beyond ourselves. Through a critical analysis of major historical philosophical systems, from the empiricism of Locke and Hume to the rationalism of Descartes and Leibniz, the book unveils hidden assumptions that have hindered our understanding of knowledge. It argues that these traditional approaches have created a false separation between the knowing subject and the known object, leading to skepticism and an impoverished view of reality. Instead, the author proposes a new way of understanding knowledge, one grounded in the direct and immediate presence of the object in consciousness. This "intuitional" theory emphasizes the crucial role of discrimination and comparison in the act of knowing, showing how we move from vague awareness to increasingly complex and differentiated judgments about the world. Ultimately, the book challenges us to reconsider the very nature of truth, universality, and the relationship between the individual and the universal. By bridging the gap between knowledge and existence, it offers a revitalized vision of human understanding and its potential to connect us to the richness and complexity of the real.
