Answer
Verum esse ipsum factum, or "the truth is the act of making", is an early instance of Constructivist Epistemology. This concept suggests that knowledge is not something that is discovered, but rather something that is created through human experience and interaction with the world. Constructivists believe that the individual is actively involved in the construction of knowledge, and that this process is influenced by both personal and social factors.
