ABSTRACT

As I look at the green field before me, I might believe not only that there is a green field there but also that I see one. And I do see one. I visually perceive it, just as I tactually perceive the glass in my hand. Both beliefs, the belief that there is a green field there, and the self-referential belief that I see one, are grounded, causally, justificationally, and epistemically, in my visual experience. They are produced by that experience, justified by it, and constitute knowledge in virtue of it.
