Internalist Virtue Epistemology
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-83892-7 (ISBN)
This monograph works at the intersection of two of the most popular and growing fields in epistemology: epistemic normativity or value and virtue epistemology. By challenging two hitherto un- or under-explored sets of assumptions epistemological orthodoxies operative in those fields and, by rejecting them, the book develops novel approaches to current theories of epistemic value and virtue.
The book argues that what is needed is an internalist (i.e. non-externalist) mode of epistemic virtue. To accomplish this, it draws on Stoic moral theory, whereby the deployment of virtue no matter whether one has any external success suffices for completely successful action.
Benjamin W. McCraw is lecturer of Philosophy at University of South Carolina Upstate
