The Bishop’s Church: Berkeley’s Master Argument and the Paradox of Knowability
Canadian Journal of Philosophy 51 (3):175-190 (2021)
Abstract
We can find in the passages that set out the Master Argument a precursor to the paradox of knowability. That paradox shows that if all truths are knowable, all truths are known. Similarly, Berkeley might be read as proposing that if all sensible objects are (distinctly) conceivable, then all sensible objects are conceived.Author's Profile
