Facticity (facticité) is the existentialist term for the concrete, unalterable givens of our existence that we did not choose—such as our place of birth, historical era, biological makeup, and past actions. In Sartre's philosophy, facticity represents the objective limits of our situation,
Nelson Goodman's New Riddle of Induction is a foundational pillar of modern epistemology and the philosophy of science. It exposes the limits of formal confirmation theory, demonstrating that empirical observation alone cannot establish which hypotheses are validly projectible into the fut
