Remembering entails knowing
Synthese (forthcoming)
| Abstract | In his recent book, Bernecker (Memory, 2010 ) has attacked the following prominent view: (RK) S remembers that p only if S knows that p . An attack on RK is also an attack on Timothy Williamson’s view that knowledge is the most general factive stative attitude. In this paper, I defend RK against Bernecker’s attacks and also advance new arguments in favor of it. In Sect. 2, I provide some background on memory. In Sect 3, I respond to Bernecker’s attacks on RK and develop a new argument for RK. In Sects. 4 and 5, I develop two more new arguments for RK. | |||||||||
