Episteme Meaning in Hindi

1. "In any given culture and at any given moment, there is always only one 'episteme' that defines the conditions of possibility of all knowledge, whether expressed in theory or silently invested in a practice."
- Michel Foucault, The Order of Things: An Archaeology of the Human Sciences

2. "Note another element of Switzerland: it is perhaps the most successful country in history, yet it has traditionally had a very low level of university education compared to the rest of the rich nations. Its system, even in banking during my days, was based on apprenticeship models, nearly vocational rather than the theoretical ones. In other words, on techne (crafts and know how), not episteme (book knowledge, know what)."
- Nassim Nicholas Taleb, Antifragile: Things that Gain from Disorder

3. "The abiding western dominology can with religion sanction identify anything dark, profound, or fluid with a revolting chaos, an evil to be mastered, a nothing to be ignored. 'God had made us master organizers of the world to establish system where chaos reigns. He has made us adept in government that we may administer government among savages and senile peoples.' From the vantage point of the colonizing episteme, the evil is always disorder rather than unjust order; anarchy rather than control, darkness rather than pallor. To plead otherwise is to write 'carte blanche for chaos.' Yet those who wear the mark of chaos, the skins of darkness, the genders of unspeakable openings -- those Others of Order keep finding voice. But they continue to be muted by the bellowing of the dominant discourse."
- Catherine Keller, Face of the Deep: A Theology of Becoming

4. " instrumentom kontroli intelektualnej... rozum nasz za mądry by móc się obronić przeciw głupocie tak głupiej. W episteme zachodniej to co jest głupie, jest głupie w sposób gigantyczny - dlatego jest nie do uchwycenia."
- Witold Gombrowicz, Dziennik 1961-1966
