While ontology deals with the sets of philosophical questions which arise when
we consider the nature of reality, epistemology deals with questions about how we
understand reality—about how we can make knowledge claims of any kind. This
word comes from the Greek “episteme,” which means knowledge, and “logos,”
meaning study. It is the study of knowledge. Your “epistemology” is your answer
to the question: “How can I know reality?”
