In response to this various alternatives to it have been advanced, notably coherentism. At the same time new versions of foundationalism were crafted, that were claimed to be immune to the earlier criticisms. This volume contains 12 papers in which various aspects of this dialectic are covered. A number of papers continue the trend to defend foundationalism, and foundationalism's commitment to basic beliefs and basic knowledge, against various attacks. Others aim to show that one important objection against coherentism, viz. that the notion of 'coherence' is too vague to be useful, can be countered UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110327519 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783110327519 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783110327519/original ER -
