Justification as Ignorance
«Rosenkranz is meticulous in laying the groundwork of a theory. He establishes that propositional justification is a feature of one's epistemic situation, rather than of one's beliefs, hence nonfactive. He further develops a multimodal epistemic logic to show that the luminosity of propositional justification entails the luminosity of doxastic justification.»

views that characterize justification in terms of the metaphysical possibility of knowing. Instead, he develops a suitable non-normal multi-modal epistemic logic for knowledge and being in a position to know that respects the finding that these notions create hyperintensional contexts. He also defends his
conception of justification against well-known anti-luminosity arguments, shows that the account allows for fruitful applications and principled solutions to the lottery and preface paradoxes, and provides a metaphysics of justification and its varying degrees of strength that is compatible with core assumptions of the knowledge-first approach and disjunctivist conceptions of mental states.
