Seemings and the Response to Radical Skepticism
I begin by making some brief remarks about commonsense particularism.

| Summary: | I begin by making some brief remarks about commonsense particularism. Commonsense particularists hold that we know pretty much what we think we know and hold that some of these beliefs are more reasonable than competing skeptical principles.

After a brief description of his views, I raise some questions about the nature and epistemic role of these epistemic seemings. |
