Future in Educational Research, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 569-579, December 2025.

Knowledge first, all the way down

Philosophical Investigations, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 363-376, October 2025.
Abstract Knowledge‐first philosophy has fewer adherents than it should.

Basing on Absences

Philosophical Issues, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 29-39, October 2025.

Referential Understanding, Luck, and Knowledge of Reference

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 590-606, September 2025.
Abstract In some cases of communication, the hearer misunderstands the referential part of the speaker's utterance although she identifies the speaker's referent. What more is needed for referential understanding? One view is that the hearer must know what the speaker refers to.
