EPISTEME
Episteme refers to a philosophical concept that encompasses knowledge or understanding in a particular field or discipline. It goes beyond mere opinion or belief and involves a systematic and justified understanding of the subject matter. Episteme is based on rationality and careful examination of evidence, aiming to establish objective truths and principles within a specific domain of knowledge. It is contrasted with doxa, which signifies common opinion or subjective beliefs lacking a rigorous foundation.

Episteme
Episteme, as distinguished from techne, is etymologically derived from the Ancient Greek word ἐπιστήμη for knowledge or science, which comes from the verb ἐπίσταμαι, "to know". In Plato's terminology episteme means knowledge, as in "justified true belief", in contrast to doxa, common belief or opinion. The word epistemology, meaning the study of knowledge, is derived from episteme.
