Belief and truth [electronic resource] : a skeptic reading of Plato / Katja Maria Vogt. Vogt, Katja Maria, 1968- Plato. Knowledge, Theory of. Skepticism. Belief and doubt. Truth. B395 .V637 2012 121.6 23 Includes bibliographical references and index. Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed on Aug. 24, 2012). 'Belief and Truth' explores a Socratic intuition about belief doxa - belief is 'shameful.' In aiming for knowledge, one must aim to get rid of beliefs. Vogt shows how deeply this proposal differs from contemporary views, but that it nevertheless speaks to intuitions we are likely to share with Plato, ancient skeptics, and Stoic epistemologists.
