  4. 3. Why Induction, but not Deduction, is a Legitimate Source of Justified Aesthetic Belief

    Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för estetik

    Författare :Edit Karlsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Aesthetic Beliefs; Inferential Reasoning; Induction; Deduction; Justification;

    Sammanfattning : What, if any, kind of inferential reasoning can be a legitimate source of justified aesthetic belief?

This follows from considerations about the type of generalisations that the arguments rely on. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I scavenge the history of philosophy for answers to the question ‘How are claims to knowledge justified?’.
