Abstract

The aim of this article, presented at a symposium on Theories of Truth, is to bring a few hints about what anthropology does and what can it say to other disciplines, in this case, to the field of philosophical knowledge.The center of the whole discourse will be an effort to make clear thatknowledge is not out of the contextualization of a particular social group,and therefore, the universals, which many epistemological theories haveshown us over history of philosophy are only applicable within a certaincultural base, but not always and everywhere exportables or universallyapplicables. This is the engine which I intend to capture within thesubsequent argument
