Nietzsche on Truth and Philosophy (review)

1993
Brian Leiter
Abstract
Chapters x through 4 of Maudemarie Clark's important book offer a rich elaboration of some ideas first suggested schematically by John Wilcox': I will call them the Epistemological Thesis (ET) and the Developmental Thesis (DT). According to Clark's ET, the" mature" Nietzsche believed we could have knowledge of the truth because he accepted (though not in these terms):(i) the" minimal correspondence theory" of truth:" Snow is white" is true (in a language L) iff snow is white; and (ii) that truth is epistemically constrained.
