What is metaphysics and epistemology of a certain philosophy?

Friday, March 5th, 2010

As in, for example, the Metaphysics of Realism and the Epistemology of Realism or the Metaphysics of Naturalism and the Epistemology of Naturalism, etc. etc. etc.

I honestly don’t get it. Could somebody _please_ explain this one to me?

Like if I was to talk about, for example, let’s say Pragmatism. What would I say under metaphysics and under epistemology? =/

Is there a difference between either one? And what exactly do they mean??

I’m so bloody confused! :[

Can we say that science is a material or empirical philosophy that reduces metaphysics to epistemology?

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

or that reduces, or, if you prefer another verb, ” translates” the Q’s in metaphysics into the Q’s of epistemology?
This Q was triggered by the one and only A to a Q I asked about the concept of energy which is still open for A’s(Answers).
I wish more people would venture a reasoned opinion based on the knowledge they have of science and philosophy. Contrary to those who think opinions can’t compete with the facts, it is opinions that tie the facts together and is the first step to a theory(which is not a synonym for opinion).

The Problems of Philosophy

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Product Description
‘Is there any knowledge in the world which is so certain that no reasonable man could doubt it?’ Philosophy is the attempt to answer such ultimate questions, not carelessly and dogmatically, as we might deal with them in ordinary life, but critically, after analysing how and why the questions arise and clarifying the assumptions and concepts on which they are based.
