Some of you may already be aware of Logos and Episteme – a new, open-access epistemology journal.

I think this is exciting, and I really hope it sticks. So far things are looking great. They have an impressive advisory board including Ernest Sosa, Alvin Goldman, Susan Haack, Duncan Prichard, and Jonathan Kvanvig. You can check out their entire team in the sidebar of the current issue.

They also have some pretty interesting looking articles in the second issue. Carl Ginet has a paper on self-evidence.

There is also a paper called “Getting Gettier’d on Testimony” that looks interesting. Lauren J. Leydon-Hardy says she will show that we can cook up interesting Gettier cases when we think about ways in which there could have been differences in what our words mean. I’m guessing these cases will involve lucky to have justified true beliefs, because of some kind of luck involved in what our words semantically express.

I urge epistemologists to help ensure that this thing thrives. Please, please, please consider submitting your next epistemology paper to this journal.

I hereby swear that my next epistemology paper will be submitted to this journal.

    It doesn’t look like you can get an RSS feed for its articles. That’s too bad.
