Abstract

Keith DeRose has argued that his version of contextualism, informed by Nozick's tracking analysis of knowledge, is consistent with the closure of knowledge under known entailment.I argue, using an example Kripke employed against Nozick, that DeRose's account is actually inconsistent with closure.
