Chisholm's Theory of Knowledge

Abstract: A 6 page paper discussing Roderick M. Chisholm's approach to relying on the senses and on memory as sources of knowledge. Even though other approaches hold that we know nothing at all and that the senses cannot be trusted, that approach also requires acceptance of assumptions. Because those individuals uttering or writing the words have the knowledge that can translate into symbols for the ideas belies the position that such knowledge is not possible. Knowledge originates from physical function, but it is not reducible to purely physical properties because we are able to revise the beliefs we generate from collected knowledge. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
