Knowing whether A or B. Aloni, M., Égré, P., & de Jager, T. Synthese, 190(14):2595–2621, September, 2013.
Paper doi abstract bibtex The paper examines the logic and semantics of knowledge attributions of the form “s knows whether A or B”. We analyze these constructions in an epistemic logic with alternative questions, and propose an account of the context-sensitivity of the corresponding sentences and of their presuppositions.
