Fodabi's Anticipation of Avocene's Epistemological Views

Fodabi provides a framework that Avocene and all the other traditional Aristotelian philosophers take over. He includes this knowing that you know condition in the definition of certitude. Also takes over the expansion of the organon to include the rhetoric and poetics which goes back to the Greek commentators. There's a real further broadening of the scope of types of knowledge that are of interest to the philosopher. And so he tries to explain why we have necessary knowledge of sort of causal empirical propositions like aspirin-released pain.
