¹296B Seminar in Epistemology: The topic will be Justification and Evidence. We’ll start with some background on the nature of justification (including reliabilism and phenomenal conservatism), and on the connection between evidence and justification (e.g. evidentialism). Then we’ll look at the nature of evidence, focusing primarily on Williamson’s theory that one’s evidence consists of the things one knows (“E=K”) and some criticisms of that theory.

No background in epistemology is required or expected -- we'll start from the beginning!
