Abstract

Epistemology has traditionally been understood as the study of knowledge. Among the central questions we find: what do we know, if anything? How do we come to know those things, if at all? Can we provide a satisfactory analysis of knowledge and knowing, or must we settle for less? Are there several distinct modes of knowledge and knowing, or only one? And so on and so forth. An epistemology of sport deals with such questions in the context of sport.
