Funded Activity Summary

Knowledge in action. This project aims to develop and defend a theory of skill. From everyday activities like riding a bicycle or carrying on a conversation to the extraordinary achievements of top artists, athletes, and thinkers, skill permeates human life and defines its possibilities. And yet we lack an adequate understanding of its nature. On the one hand, we think of skilled action as flexible and intelligent, while on the other we think of it as unreflective and automatic. How can these claims be reconciled? This project aims to resolve this tension by developing a novel account of how knowledge can be embodied in action. In doing so, it seeks to advance our understanding not just in philosophy, but also in areas such as the arts, education, and sport.
