For other uses, see Knowledge (disambiguation).
Personification of knowledge (Greek Επιστημη, Episteme) in Celsus Library in Ephesus, Turkey.
.Knowledge is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as (i) expertise, and skills acquired by a person through experience or education; the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject; (ii) what is known in a particular field or in total; facts and information; or (iii) awareness or familiarity gained by experience of a fact or situation.^ Experiential Foundationalism, then, combines to two crucial ideas: (i) when a justified belief is basic, its justification is not owed to any other belief; (ii) what in fact justifies basic beliefs are experiences.

Defining knowledge (philosophy)

Robert Reid, Knowledge (1896). Thomas Jefferson Building, Washington, D.C.
See also: epistemology
“ .We suppose ourselves to possess unqualified scientific knowledge of a thing, as opposed to knowing it in the accidental way in which the sophist knows, when we think that we know the cause on which the fact depends, as the cause of that fact and of no other, and, further, that the fact could not be other than it is.^ In other words, you know what things are dangerous, what things are harmful, and so you leave them alone and don't touch them.

 ^ External Knowledge (EK) : S knows that p iff p is true; S believes that p ; S is externally justified in believing that p (in a way that degettierizes S's belief).
  • The Analysis of Knowledge (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) 9 January 2010 15:11 UTC plato.stanford.edu [Source type: Original source]

 ^ A further question is whether, if God exists, knowledge of God might not also be possible in other ways, for example, on the basis of perception or perhaps mystical experiences.
  • Epistemology (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) 9 January 2010 15:11 UTC plato.stanford.edu [Source type: Original source]

 .Now that scientific knowing is something of this sort is evident — witness both those who falsely claim it and those who actually possess it, since the former merely imagine themselves to be, while the latter are also actually, in the condition described.^ Since it is false, it is not the sort of thing anybody can know.
  • The Analysis of Knowledge (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) 9 January 2010 15:11 UTC plato.stanford.edu [Source type: Original source]

 ^ So it's possible to know something false after all.

 ^ Since the barn he is looking at is an actual barn, it would appear that the perceptual process that causes Henry to believe this does not relate him to anything false.
  • The Analysis of Knowledge (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) 9 January 2010 15:11 UTC plato.stanford.edu [Source type: Original source]

 .Consequently the proper object of unqualified scientific knowledge is something which cannot be other than it is.^ Following are the steps for that small team, although, like other knowledge work processes, it is less linear than this step-by-step process would appear.

 ^ So little is actually known about knowledge that it becomes difficult to express anything other than contempt for the unknown.

— Aristotle, Posterior Analytics (Book 1 Part 2)
The definition of knowledge is a matter of on-going debate among philosophers in the field of epistemology. .The classical definition, described but not ultimately endorsed by Plato [1], specifies that a statement must meet three criteria in order to be considered knowledge: it must be justified, true, and believed.^ The JTB Analysis of Knowledge : S knows that p iff p is true; S believes that p ; S is justified in believing that p .

 .There are a number of alternatives proposed, including Robert Nozick's arguments for a requirement that knowledge 'tracks the truth' and Simon Blackburn's additional requirement that we do not want to say that those who meet any of these conditions 'through a defect, flaw, or failure' have knowledge.^ Truth and certitude are conditions of knowledge.

.In contrast to this approach, Wittgenstein observed, following Moore's paradox, that one can say "He believes it, but it isn't so", but not "He knows it, but it isn't so".

Communicating knowledge

Symbolic representations can be used to indicate meaning and can be thought of as a dynamic process. .Hence the transfer of the symbolic representation can be viewed as one ascription process whereby knowledge can be transferred.^ One family of epistemological issues about perception arises when we concern ourselves with the psychological nature of the perceptual processes through which we acquire knowledge of external objects.

  • Epistemology (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) 9 January 2010 15:11 UTC plato.stanford.edu [Source type: Original source]

 Science is “the process used everyday to logically complete thoughts through inference of facts determined by calculated experiments. Sir Francis Bacon, critical in the historical development of the scientific method, his works established and popularized an inductive methodology for scientific inquiry. His famous aphorism, "knowledge is power", is found in the Meditations Sacrae (1597).[7].
.Until recent times, at least in the Western tradition, it was simply taken for granted that knowledge was something possessed only by humans (and/or God) — and probably adult humans at that.^ Progress that is T owards the Whole All progress arose in humanity only when partial knowledge embraced a wider part, a movement towards the whole.

 Sometimes the notion might stretch to (ii) Society-as-such, as in (e.g.) "the knowledge possessed by the Coptic culture" (as opposed to its individual members), but that was not assured either. .Nor was it usual to consider unconscious knowledge in any systematic way until this approach was popularized by Freud.^ However, according to an alternative approach that has in the last three decades become increasingly popular, what stands in the way of epistemic luck — what turns a true belief into knowledge — is the reliability of the cognitive process that produced the belief.

 Thus the criteria seem to be:
  • The system should apparently be dynamic and self-organizing (unlike a mere book on its own).
  • The knowledge must constitute some sort of representation of "the outside world"[10], or ways of dealing with it (directly or indirectly).
  • There must be some way for the system to access this information quickly enough for it to be useful.

However this may lead to problems whenever the topic spills over into those excluded domains—e.g. when Kant (following Newton) dismissed Space and Time as axiomatically "transcendental" and "a priori" — a claim later disproved by Piaget's clinical studies. It also seems likely that the vexed problem of "infinite regress" can be largely (but not completely) solved by proper attention to how unconscious concepts are actually developed, both during infantile learning and as inherited "pseudo-transcendentals" inherited from the trial-and-error of previous generations.

.Knowledge, being a primitive fact of consciousness, cannot, strictly speaking, be defined; but the direct and spontaneous consciousness of knowing may be made clearer by pointing out its essential and distinctive characteristics.^ To this point, I have defined explicit knowledge, discussed some of its characteristics, and made a case for explicating knowledge.

ESSENTIALS OF KNOWLEDGE

(1) Knowledge is essentially the consciousness of an object, i.e. of any thing, fact, or principle belonging to the physical, mental, or metaphysical order, that may in any manner be reached by cognitive faculties. An event, a material substance, a man, a geometrical theorem, a mental process, the immortality of the soul, the existence and nature of God, may be so many objects of knowledge. .Thus knowledge implies the antithesis of a knowing subject and a known object.^ Thus we arrive at a tripartite analysis of knowledge as JTB: S knows that p if and only if p is true and S is justified in believing that p .
  • Epistemology (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) 9 January 2010 15:11 UTC plato.stanford.edu [Source type: Original source]

 ^ So if, with Dretske, we want an account of knowledge that includes animals among the knowing subjects, we might want to abandon the traditional JTB account in favor of K-reliabilism.
  • The Analysis of Knowledge (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) 9 January 2010 15:11 UTC plato.stanford.edu [Source type: Original source]

 ^ Supramental perception In supermind the entire object of knowledge is known, as in intuition, but the knowledge arises as a creative faculty from within ourselves.

 .It always possesses an objective character and any process that may be conceived as merely subjective is not a cognitive process.^ You may not like the subject, you might like the process even less but I think Rodney Barker wrote a helpful book.

 .Any attempt to reduce the object to a purely subjective experience could result only in destroying the fact itself of knowledge, which implies the object, or not-self, as clearly as it does the subject, or self.^ Ontolingua is for declarative specification only, and does not provide a way to store and retrieve facts in a knowledge base.

 ^ When we embrace all sides of a matter or subject or aspect of life, we have far greater insight and knowledge, and are therefore able to produce infinite-like results.

(2) Knowledge supposes a judgment, explicit or implicit. .Apprehension, that is, the mental conception of a simple present object, is generally numbered among the cognitive processes, yet, of itself, it is not in the strict sense knowledge, but only its starting-point.^ Beyond that one moves to greater subtleties still, where thought itself is abandoned as knowledge descends through light, illumination, and intuitions of objects of knowledge.

 A few judgments are reached immediately, but by far the greater number require patient investigation. .The mind is not merely passive in knowing, not a mirror or sensitized plate, in which objects picture themselves; it is also active in looking for conditions and causes, and in building up science out of the materials which it receives from experience.^ When the picture appears in the mind, they may sketch it down on paper, and then experiment with physical objects to see if it works.

 ^ Having insight on that topic makes us ripe to experience descents of intuitions of spiritual mind, where the deepest truths, the object of integral knowledge that we sought to know when we undertook the endeavor just enters our being.

 St. Thomas will not be accused of idealism, and yet he makes the nature of the mind an essential factor in the act of knowledge:
Cognition is brought about by the presence of the known object in the knowing mind. But the object is in the knower after the fashion of the knower. .Hence, for any knower, knowledge is after the fashion of his own nature (Summa theol., I, Q. xii, a.^ This is sankharupekkha-ñana: letting sankharas — all things fashioned and fabricated — follow their own inherent nature.

 4).
What is this presence of the object in the subject? Not a physical presence; not even in the form of a picture, a duplicate, or a copy. It cannot be defined by any comparison with the physical world; it is sui generis, a cognitive likeness, a species intentionalis.
.When knowledge, either of concrete realities or of abstract propositions, is said to consist in the presence of an object in the mind, we cannot mean by this object something external in its absolute existence and isolated from the mind, for we cannot think outside of our own thought, and the mind cannot know what is not somehow present in the mind.^ The object of knowledge enters the mind without thought.

 But this is no sufficient ground for accepting extreme idealism and looking upon knowledge as purely subjective. .If the object of an assent or experience cannot be absolute reality, it does not follow that to an assent or experience there is no corresponding reality; and the fact that an object is reached through the conception of it does not justify the conclusion that the mental conception is the whole of the object's reality.^ From a coherentist point of view, we might answer the J-question as follows: Perceptual experiences are a source of justification because we are justified in believing them to be reliable.

Facts about KnowledgeRDF feed

Simple English

Knowledge means the things which are true, as opposed to opinion. Information which is correct is knowledge. Knowledge can always be supported by evidence. That makes it justified; it is not an opinion or a guess.

If someone understands an idea or is aware of something, then he or she has knowledge of it. When it makes sense to someone, this knowledge becomes understanding. A knowledgeable person is someone who knows a lot. If someone has know-how it means that they can put knowledge to work in doing or building something.

Contents

Where it comes from

Knowledge comes from being in an environment, having some experience there, and then sharing what was learned. That way others may gain from what someone else knows.

Types of knowledge

When doing science, it may be necessary to set up a strict experiment. Then the experience is repeatable and others may repeat it afterwards.

Other types of knowledge

Other types of knowledge can be for a more specific purpose, for example learning a language. In business, computers help to record and share what employees know.

Religious meaning of knowledge

Knowledge in religion is different in that it depends on faith, belief and the authority of religious leaders, not on evidence of a scientific or legal kind. There are differing views on whether religious statements should be regarded as knowledge.

In many expressions of Christianity, such as Catholicism and Anglicanism, knowledge is one of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit.[1]

In Islam, knowledge (Arabic: علم, ʿilm) is given great significance. "The All-Knowing" (al-ʿAlīm) is one of the Names of God reflecting distinct properties of God in Islam. The Qur'an asserts that knowledge comes from God (2:239) and various hadith encourage getting knowledge. Muhammad is reported to have said "Seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave" and "Verily the men of knowledge are the inheritors of the prophets". Islamic scholars, theologians and jurists are often given the title alim, meaning 'knowledgeable'.
