"The article Towards a deep epistemology: knowing in historical and cross-cultural context by Michael Beaney and Karyn Lai has been published recently as the lead article in the special issue Knowing in Historical and Cross-Cultural Context of British Journal for the History of Philosophy."
"This article makes the case for a deep epistemology, an epistemology rooted in the epistemic experiences and philosophical debates from across the full range of historical periods and global cultures, with fine-grained sensitivity to the actual linguistic terms and constructions used in expressing them."
Deep epistemology advocates grounding epistemological theory in the epistemic experiences and philosophical debates found across historical periods and global cultures. It emphasizes sensitivity to the actual linguistic terms and constructions people use to express epistemic states and reasoning. It seeks fine-grained, context-aware analysis rather than imposing narrow, presentist frameworks. It values comparative and historical evidence as central to understanding knowledge concepts and practices. It encourages interdisciplinary engagement with textual, linguistic, and cultural sources to reveal diverse epistemic concepts. It aims to broaden epistemology’s scope to include non-Western traditions and historical forms of knowing on their own terms.
