A detailed model adding dimensions of certainty and scope. Axis 1: Rationalism-Empiricism. Axis 2: Foundationalism-Coherentism. Axis 3: Internalism-Externalism. Axis 4: Individualism-Socialism. Axis 5: A Priori-A Posteriori. Axis 6: Analytic-Synthetic. Axis 7: Certainty-Fallibilism (knowledge requires certainty vs. knowledge can be uncertain but still knowledge). Axis 8: Universal-Particular (knowledge of general [laws] vs. knowledge of specific facts). These eight axes create 256 epistemological positions, mapping the full complexity of human knowing. Scientific laws aim for universal, fallibilist, a posteriori, synthetic knowledge. Historical events are particular, fallibilist, a posteriori, synthetic. [Mathematical] truths aim for universal, certain (in some views), a priori, analytic. The 8 Axes [demonstrate] that [epistemology] isn't a monolith—it's a multidimensional space where different kinds of knowing occupy different coordinates.
