Abstract

The achievement of truth is to be, according to an old prejudice of Western philosophy, the reward for strong epistemic endeavours. It is possible lo understand the very idea of an epistemic justificaron as an expression of such a «moral dignity» of truth. It has not been enough emphasized that some epistemological concepts may be fruitfully understood as secularized theological categories. This is the case with justification (originally. a theological term indeed). The paper gives reasons for an anti-antirealist epistemology, and defends such a conception by unmasking the theological foundations of rival conceptions.
