Hazlett's Razor Cut

Abstract for his "Metaphilosophy" essay:

"Grice's razor is a principle of parsimony that states a preference for linguistic explanations in terms of conversational implicature, over explanations in terms of semantic context dependence. Here I propose a Gricean theory of knowledge attributions, and contend on the basis of Grice's Razor that it is superior to contextualism about "knows.""
