Abstract
Intellectual humility is a hot topic. One of the key questions the literature is exploring is definitional: What is intellectual humility? In their recent paper, “Intellectual Humility: Owning our Limitations,” Dennis Whitcomb, Heather Battaly, Jason Baehr, and Daniel Howard-Snyder have proposed an answer: Intellectual humility is “proper attentiveness to, and owning of, one’s intellectual limitations” (2015). I highlight some limitations of the limitations-owning account of intellectual humility. And in conclusion, I suggest (i) that ultimately these are not limitations that any viable account of intellectual humility should own and (ii) that Whitcomb et al. should revise their view accordingly.
