On the Objects of Belief

2000

AI-generated Abstract

The paper explores the nature of the objects of belief, arguing against the dominant view that they are propositions. It introduces an alternative perspective called the "intentional conception," which is posited as a more accurate framework for understanding belief contents. The author aims to clarify this conception and its implications for epistemology, particularly emphasizing its foundational role in the theory of knowledge and belief.
