Curious about when to start or stop an inquiry? Ahead of a conference bridging mainstream and formal epistemology, I offer a primer on fine grained epistemology and apply it to recent debates on norms of inquiry, evidence gathering and credences. I ask when to initiate, continue, conclude or reopen inquiry and tackle Jane Friedman's Chrysler Building puzzle.
Rolly's Take
For the inquisitive mind that dances between the lines of formal and informal understanding, seeking clarity amidst complexity. This blog beckons those who relish the nuances of belief and evidence, pondering not just what we know, but how we come to know it. Here, the art of inquiry unfurls like a delicate map, revealing the often-overlooked landscapes of thought that challenge the simple certainties.
