  Among those who do draw a distinction between the concepts, there is little agreement about what exactly the difference is. For some, the difference is between public and private domains. Statman (1992, 438n45) claims that modesty has an external domain while humility does not and Sinha (2012, 265) says that modesty is public while humility is private. For others, they have different epistemic requirements: Ben-Ze’ev (1993, 240) and Nuyen (1998, 101) claim that humility involves underrating oneself, while modesty does not. Driver (1998, 378f5), however, claims the opposite making modesty involve underrating and humility not. This article will take both terms to refer to a general response to one’s own goodness or achievements and will use the term that the author under consideration uses when discussing particular views.
