Details:
First published in 2001, Volume 1 of this series focuses on Epistemology within the study of Indian philosophy. This volume explores Indian pramāṇa theory, which concerns the nature and sources of knowledge. Indian philosophers developed a causal theory of knowledge, acknowledging multiple valid means of knowing, such as perception, inference, and testimony.
Indian pramāṇa theorists addressed issues similar to those in Western epistemology but often offered different perspectives. They also raised questions about knowledge that may be unfamiliar to Western philosophers.
The selections in this volume cover key epistemological topics in Indian philosophy, including means of knowledge, realism vs. anti-realism, truth, knowledge of knowledge, illusion and perceptual error, knowability, testimony, and issues of scepticism and doubt.
