简介
One of the epistemic goals of education is to help students understand significant propositions. On a popular view, understanding a proposition, unlike merely knowing what it says, involves grasping it. What does it take to grasp a proposition? In this talk, I will argue against the phenomenal theory and offer an alternative that captures its insights while addressing its limitations.
