no really.. wtf is episteme?
The Greek word episteme is often translated as ‘knowledge.’ (though it’s literally translated to ‘science’)
Epistemology is the branch of philosophy that deals with the nature, origin and the concepts of knowledge itself. It has historically been one of the most investigated and most debated of all philosophical discourses. Much of this debate has focused on analysing in detail the nature and variety of knowledge, and how it relates to similar notions such as truth and belief. Much of this discussion concerns the justification of claims insighted by knowledge.
Philosophers have developed a range of epistemological theories to accompany their general philosophical positions. More recent studies have re-written centuries-old assumptions, and the field of epistemology continues to be vibrant and dynamic.
Epistemology excersizes the key elements and fundamentals of general philosophy. Logic and justification play an important role in epistemologic ideas.
