Formatted contents note Part 1. Knowledge, truth and belief 1. Knowledge, conceptual knowledge and the iconic route to grasping an idea ....3 1. In which consider whether knowledge is an important topic in plato`s work ......3 II. In which we classify twentieth century interpretation of plato`s epistemology into roughly three distinct views and I place my view in this taxonomy ...11 III. In which we consider whether it is a good idea to look for a definition and if so why ....23 IV. In which we investigate how knowing relates to factual information and propositional utterances or beliefs ....27 V In which i summarize the plan for the rest of this book ....33 2. Truth and belief ....34 I. In which we consider the relation between knowledge and truth and between knowledge and belief .....34 II.

Introduction and summary for part II: Plato`s meno ....55 1. In which we note that plato is arguing on the same side as wittgenstein against socratic essentialism ....55 II. That the geometry episode proves that one can identify a precise but indefinable length by pointing not saying ....56 III. That socrates turns to the hypothetical method not as a second best but as the perfect method for dealing with types that have no essential definition ....58 IV. That knowing what it is about some type F does not equate to knowing which tokens fall under the type or to a description of the shared properties of F things or to any classification of the F as a token of a more generic type ....59 V. That the distinction between episteme and doxa in plato is the distinction between the intellectual grasp of the type and the experiential recognition of particular tokens whether with the senses or just in the mind 4 Knowin what virtue is in plato`s meno ....69 I. In which we consider how we should read the meno ....69 II. In which we note that the hypothetical method (If well done) is ideal for poion esti questions about vague concepts with no neat definitions.....76 III. In which we conclude that not being able to say what it is concerning some concept is perfectly compatible with knowing what it is ....82 5. Knowledge and correct impressions in plato`s meno ....84 I. Orientation issues about the relation between doxa and episteme arising from chapter 4 ....84 II. Concerning passage A: The opening pages of the meno ....85 III. Passage c: How knowledge differs from a merely correc impression ....87 IV. Passage B: Lessons from the slave-boy passage ...99 V. Once again true doxa turn into knowledge ....103 VI. Conclusion: That neither doxa nor episteme is a propositional attitude ....106 Part III Plato`s republic 6. Introduction and summary for part III Plato`s republic ....111 I. In which we consider the plan of the republic, and why the quest for a definition is abandoned .....111 II. That we can avoid ascribing fallacies to plato once we understand plato`s method ...112 7. Discovering what justice is in plato`s republic ....115 I. In which we examine the argument of the argument of the Republic and discover that plato is not trying to define justice but is using a method that bypasses the need for definition .....115 8.
