A problem of logical omniscience arises, roughly, when, relative to a class of agents, (i) one&#8217;s theory of an epistemic attitude is committed to it being closed under logical implication, and (ii) this is, prima facie, a misrepresentation of that attitude. We concentrate on a fundamental version of the problem, concerning ordinary knowledge ascription (&#8216;knowledge per se&#8217;) and arbitrary agents. Though logical omniscience is obviously problematic for a theory of knowledge per se, it is plausible that knowledge per se obeys some (static and dynamic) logical principles. We try to capture this with three complementary tools: (i) taking content as composed of truth conditions and topic; (ii) taking minds as fragmented; (iii) taking knowledge as defeasible. We compare our logical system to related ones and exhibit soundness and completeness results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Peter Hawke\u00a0(ILLC)<br \/>\nDate and Time: Thursday, March&nbsp;28th 2019, 16:30-18:00<br \/>\nVenue: ILLC Seminar Room F1.15, Science Park 107.<br \/>\nTitle:\u00a0Logical Omniscience and Knowledge Per se.<br \/>\nAbstract.\u00a0I&#8217;ll report on the latest developments in an ongoing project on the problem of logical omniscience, emphasizing recent technical developments (joint work with Aybuke Ozgun and Franz Berto).
