Philosophy
English term or phrase: epistemic companion
Usually, memory is considered to be an `epistemic defect', a result of
earthly limitations to human knowledge. One of the limitations would be its
psychological constitution as contrasted to the cognitive possibilities of
`ideal knowers' with unrestricted cognitive faculties. The upshot of this
thesis is that memory is not a necessary epistemic companion.
