Linda Zagzebski's work in epistemology is largely responsible for several sea changes in the field in the late 20th century. Zagzebski is one of the founders of contemporary virtue epistemology. Her work helped to open up three areas of inquiry that had been neglected in contemporary analytic epistemology: (1) the exploration of intellectual character virtues (e.g., open-mindedness); (2) the analysis of understanding; and (3) the discussion of the value of true belief as compared to the value of knowledge. It is not an exaggeration to say that her work helped to generate new fields in analytic epistemology, which are now burgeoning. Given the influence of Zagzebski's work on the trajectory of contemporary epistemology, this collection of papers, in my personal view, urgently fills a gaping hole in the literature.

Heather Battaly, University of Connecticut

This is an outstanding volume. Zagzebski's pioneering work has changed the face of epistemology as we know it, underscoring many long-neglected connections between epistemology and ethics. The volume showcases the extraordinary breadth and depth of her work, elucidating its structure and providing a broad sampling of her contributions. It is a must-read for anyone interested in virtue epistemology or in the wider intersections of epistemology and ethics.

Jason Baehr, Loyola Marymount University

This collection showcases the most influential published essays by philosopher Linda Trinkaus Zagzebski. One of the most distinguished thinkers working in epistemology today, particularly where the theory of knowledge meets ethics and the philosophy of religion, Zagzebski is well-known for broadening epistemology and refocusing it on epistemic virtue and epistemic value. Her work has greatly influenced the trajectory of contemporary epistemology, opening up new fields in analytic epistemology. The papers collected here are organized into six sections to underline the scope of her impact on six key subject areas of epistemology: (1) knowledge and understanding, (2) intellectual virtue, (3) epistemic value, (4) virtue in religious epistemology, (5) intellectual autonomy and authority, and (6) skepticism and the Gettier problem.
