Abstract:

This paper weighs up the applicative value of knowledge management (KM) for the investigative domain of one of the branches of epistemology dealing with the theory of knowledge, namely, the linguistic phenomenological epistemology of practice. Special attention is thus devoted to the language as an instrumental device of documentation and retrieval of knowledge, as well as a communicational medium being relevant in speaking and thinking activities of knowing subjects. Hence, the concept of KM is discussed in the final part of the paper elaborating investigative postulates for the applied epistemology in both normative and aretaic sense.
