ABSTRACT

How does epistemological disjunctivism relate to the wider issue of the nature of knowledge? I answer this question by considering how epistemological disjunctivism can be embedded within my own preferred theory of knowledge, anti-luck virtue epistemology. The motivation for the latter is outlined, and a case is made that not only is epistemological disjunctivism consistent with anti-luck virtue epistemology, but that the proposals are also a natural fit. It is further shown that the kind of strong (albeit non-classical) epistemic internalism that is integral to epistemological disjunctivism is entirely compatible with interpreting anti-luck virtue epistemology, qua a structural thesis about the nature of knowledge, along epistemic externalist lines.
