FAQs

What issue details identify BLACKFRIARS in this document?

The issue is dated March 1937 and shown as Vol. XVIII, No. 204.

What does “On Evidence” argue about evidence and certitude?

It frames evidence as truth that produces certitude and explains that evidence must be self-reflective, tied to how different faculties know.

How does “On Evidence” distinguish evidence for different senses?

It states that evidence for one faculty is not evidence for another—for example, the eye relates to form or colour, while the ear relates to sound, and one cannot perceive the other’s evidence.
