DE BRASI, LEANDRO. Testimony and Value in the Theory of Knowledge. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2015, vol.64, n.159, pp.87-107. ISSN 0120-0062. https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v64n159.40970.
The approach set forth by Edward Craig in Knowledge and the State of Nature has a greater explanatory value than it has been granted to date, and his suitably modified project can resolve a number of puzzling issues regarding the value of knowledge. The paper argues that a novel theory that relates knowledge to testimony is capable of explaining why knowledge is more valuable than mere true belief and why it has a distinctive value. Significantly, this theory avoids the recently advanced revisionism regarding the focus of epistemological research.
