First, the author considers several paradigmatic thought experiments in epistemology that depict the appeal to intuition. He then argues that the nature of thought experiment-generated intuitions is not best explained by an a priori Platonism. Second, the book instead develops and argues for a thin conception of epistemic intuitions. The account maintains that intuition is neither a priori nor a posteriori but multi-dimensional. It is an intentional but non-propositional mental state that is also non-conceptual and non-phenomenal in nature. Moreover, this state is individuated by its progenitor, namely, the relevant thought experiment. Third, the author provides an argument for the evidential status of intuitions based on the correct account of the nature of epistemic intuition. The suggestion is the fitting-ness approach: intuition alone has no epistemic status. Rather, intuition has evidentiary value as long as it fits well with other pieces into a whole, namely, the pertinent thought experiment. Finally, the book addresses the key challenges raised by supporters of anti-c | | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | | 关键词 | thought experiments; epistemic argument; intuition and philosophy; intuition and epistemology; thought e | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-33480-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-33482-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-33480-1Series ISSN 0921-8599 Series E-ISSN 2542-8349 | | issn_series | 0921-8599 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
