Donald Davidson on Knowledge and Perception - The Martin Discussion
Description
Donald Davidson discusses his views on epistemology and perception with Michael Martin. Among other things, he discusses the traditional definition of knowledge as justified true belief, coherentism about truth and knowledge, John McDowell's criticism, the notion of qualia, his rejection of any epistemic intermediary between the world and our beliefs about it, how he can account for perceptual illusions and hallucinations, and his own externalist account of perceptual beliefs and how they are justified.
