Making Space for Knowing: A Capacious Approach to Comparative
Epistemology is an intervention in mainstream Western epistemology,
especially as it relates to theories of knowledge, knowing, and
knowers. Through its focus on propositional knowledge, contemporary
mainstream epistemology has narrowed the scope of the definition of
"knowledge" to a point where it fails to accurately describe the
structure of knowing and prevents a genuine understanding of
"knowledge" across different contexts and cultures. By drawing on
resources in analytic philosophy and hermeneutics, Aaron B. Creller
outlines an approach to comparative epistemology that makes space
for the particularity of non-Western approaches to knowing. It then
further develops this model by engaging with classical Chinese
philosophy and twentieth-century Chinese epistemologists, offering
a set of best practices for comparative epistemology.
