Epistemic contextualism defended
Epistemic contextualists think that the extension of the expression ‘knows’ (and its cognates) depends on and varies with the context of utterance.

The first are what I call the ‘linguistic objections’, which purport to show that the best available linguistic evidence suggests that ‘...

Even if we can meet some other theori...
