The philosophy of testimony (also, epistemology of testimony) considers primarily the nature of the confluence of language and knowledge occasioned by the transference of beliefs between speakers and hearers through testimony. Testimony constitutes words, gestures, or utterances that convey beliefs. This definition may be distinguished from the legal notion of testimony in that the speaker does not have to make a declaration of the truth of the facts.
