👉 Demosthenean is a term used in ancient Greek philosophy to describe a form of knowledge that is not innate, but acquired through learning and experience. It refers to the idea that there are certain things that we can know or understand without having any prior training or education. In demostheneism, knowledge is seen as an internal state or quality of the mind that arises from the practice of contemplation, meditation, and other forms of spiritual or religious thought.
