A Happy Triumvirate: Virtue Epistemology, Contextualism and the Safety Principle (Draft)

I'm currently at work on a paper defending a virtue responsibilist account of knowledge designed to accomodate two anti-luck concerns: (i) if S knows some contingent proposition p, then S couldn't have easily been wrong about p; (ii) S's knowing some contingent proposition p amounts to an achievement for S such that S is creditworthy for knowing p.

I call (i) and (ii) "anti-luck" concerns because, if a belief is true in some relevant way because of (veritic) luck, neither (i) nor (ii) will be met.

My proposal incorporates a safety condition to meet (i), and outlines a way to preserve (ii) by requiring that creditworthiness depend in part on whether an agent’s exhibition of intellectual virtue is an explanatorily salient feature of her forming a safe belief, a matter that will itself depend on features of context in particular cases of inquiry.

Below is a link:

Please note: I'm wide open for advice (as this paper is currently only a rough manuscript); I'd prefer you don't quote unless checking with me, given that its current state is far from polished.

Feel free to send comments, criticisms, rants of ad hominem vitriol, etc. to: j.a.carter@stir.ac.uk

Cheers--Adam

Thanks for helping me to attain new strategies about
personal computers. I also possess the belief that one of the best ways to keep your notebook in leading
condition is to use a hard plastic-type material case,
as well as shell, that suits over the top of your computer.
A lot of these protective gear are usually model specific
since they are manufactured to fit perfectly over the natural housing.
You can buy all of them directly from owner, or through third party sources if they are for your mobile computer, however
only a few laptop will have a cover on the market. Once again, thanks for your recommendations.
