Quantifiers and epistemic contextualism
Philosophical Studies 155 (3):383-398 (2011)

Understanding the context-sensitivity of knowledge attributions in terms of the context-sensitivity of universal quantifiers provides an appealing approach to knowledge. Among the virtues of this approach are solutions to the skeptical paradox and the Gettier problem. I respond to influential objections to Lewis’s account | |||||||||
