MIRANDA-ROJAS, Rafael. Non-Evidential Belief and Vital Certainty. Estud.filos [online]. 2016, n.54, pp.71-85. ISSN 0121-3628. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.ef.n54a05.
This paper argues that the notion of explicit belief in Ortega y Gasset (1946) and Wittgenstein (1969) requires a non-intellectualist understanding of certainty, what is called vital certainty. It is argued that the normative role of the hinge propositions prevents skeptic doubt and, in turn, enables epistemology. This normative role is understood as a-epistemic, even if we can affirm a sui generis use of "I know". Finally, skeptical reading is discussed as a possible case of loss of certainty, and how vital certainty responds to these cases.
