Rarity of term
This term is rare, and the article should not provide the impression that this is an established field. In Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy (10 volumes) it is only mentioned once in the article "Lambert, Johann Heinrich (1728-77)". Quote: "Part Two of the Neues Organon is the ‘Alethiology or Doctrine of Truth’. Lambert’s key concern here is with the nature and function of the simple concepts that serve as the building blocks for the logical construction of true propositions. Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy, Version 1.0, London: Routledge". 195.215.206.245 22:27, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- I have incorporated this information in the article. Anarchia 21:26, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Merge proposal with epistemology
I do not recommend a merging with epistemology, and I do not agree that epistemology can be said to be about "the study of absolute or factual truth". Some epistemological theories are, for example, based on the doctribe of fallibilism according to which there is no absolute truth. 195.215.206.245 22:27, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. Merger proposal removed. Anarchia 21:26, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Addition
I have some information on the term to add, but I'm not sure how to properly include the proper citation.
Suggested text addition: The term appears in The Banalization of Nihilism (p.p 17-18, 1992) in contrast to several other types of nihilism, especially epistemological nihilism. The views of several philosophers are then distinqished by reference to 'alethiologicsl nihilism', 'epistemological nihilism' and the like.
