In the first chapter, we present and evaluate some basic assumptions of Swinburne?s theory, especially the relations between the concepts of belief and probability and his defense of doxastic contrastivism. In the intermediate chapter, we provide the axioms and definitions of the formal machinery of probability and then we examine more carefully different kinds of probability and its use in the context of dispute between internalism and externalism. In the last chapter, we analyze Swinburne?s Bayesianism and his criteria of logical probability. The a priori criterion of simplicity is the most important in his version of Bayesianism. In the final part, we discuss some problems and objections to his theory and to Bayesianism in general. The problem of old evidence remains the main challenge to the Bayesian confirmation theory. Furthermore, we conclude that the criterion of simplicity is unsuccessful in achieving Swinburne?s purposes. / Este trabalho pretende explorar os aspectos centrais da teoria de probabilidade e do Bayesianismo objetivo de Richard Swinburne. No cap?tulo inaugural, apresentamos e avaliamos alguns pressupostos b?sicos da teoria de Swinburne, sobretudo as rela??es entre os conceitos de cren?a e probabilidade e a sua defesa do contrastivismo dox?stico. No cap?tulo seguinte, oferecemos os axiomas e as defini??es do maquin?rio formal do c?lculo de probabilidades e, em seguida, examinamos mais minuciosamente os diferentes tipos de probabilidade e o seu emprego no contexto de disputa entre internalismo e externalismo. No ?ltimo cap?tulo, analisamos o Bayesianismo de Swinburne e os seus crit?rios de probabilidade l?gica. O crit?rio a priori de simplicidade ? o mais importante na sua vers?o de Bayesianismo. Na parte final, discutimos alguns problemas e obje??es ? sua teoria e ao Bayesianismo como um todo. O problema da evid?ncia antiga continua a ser o principal desafio ? teoria de confirma??o Bayesiana. Al?m disso, conclu?mos que o crit?rio de simplicidade n?o ? bem-sucedido em rela??o ao desideratum pretendido por Swinburne.
