Abstract

My aim in this paper is not to answer meta-philosophical questions concerning the purpose, subject matter and proper method of philosophical inquiry, but to discuss critically the merits and demerits of one classic meta-philosophical conception of philosophy, according to which philosophy is a search for truth (knowledge of truth).
