The grounding or motivating intuitions behind internalism and externalism seem to be fundamentally at odds. If there is ever to be a viable or satisfying solution to the problem, it must satisfy the grounding intuitions behind both sides of the debate. Duncan Pritchard claims his theory of epistemological disjunctivism (ED) does just this, arguing that it could be the holy grail we have all been waiting for. However, I believe the holy grail is already out there in the form of the theory that knowledge is a mental state (KMS). In this article, I defend the idea the KMS is far better able to satisfy the internalist and externalist intuitions than ED.

分离主义和认识论的圣杯

内在主义和外在主义背后的基础或激励直觉似乎从根本上是矛盾的。如果要找到解决问题的可行或令人满意的解决方案，就必须满足辩论双方的基本直觉。邓肯·普里查德 (Duncan Pritchard) 声称他的认识论分离主义 (ED) 理论就是这样做的，认为这可能是我们一直在等待的圣杯。然而，我相信圣杯已经以知识是一种精神状态 (KMS) 的理论形式出现了。在这篇文章中，我捍卫了 KMS 比 ED 更能满足内在主义和外在主义直觉的想法。
