Epistemology normalized
We offer a general framework for theorizing about the structure of knowledge and belief in
terms of the comparative normality of situations compatible with one's evidence. The guiding …

Knowledge from probability
We give a probabilistic analysis of inductive knowledge and belief and explore its
predictions concerning knowledge about the future, about laws of nature, and about the …

Mighty knowledge
We often claim to know what might be—or probably is—the case. Modal knowledge along
these lines creates a puzzle for information-sensitive semantics for epistemic modals. This …

Knowledge from multiple experiences
This paper models knowledge in cases where an agent has multiple experiences over time.
Using this model, we introduce a series of observations that undermine the pretheoretic idea …

Getting accurate about knowledge
There is a large literature exploring how accuracy constrains rational degrees of belief. This
paper turns to the unexplored question of how accuracy constrains knowledge. We begin by …

Safety's coordination problems
J Dutant, S Rosenkranz - Philosophical Studies, 2024 - Springer
The safety conception of knowledge holds that a belief constitutes knowledge iff relevantly
similar beliefs—its epistemic counterparts—are true. It promises an instructive account of …
