4th Annual Canadian Graduate Students' Conference in Philosophy, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Lecture, Mar 15, 1991.

Foundationalism is the thesis that knowledge is underpinned by some self-evident or irrefutable propositions, such as the truths of logic or sense-data. In this talk I consider some arguments against foundationalism.
