Can Epistemology truly be Generalized? Knowledge and Methods are different across disciplines. You don’t use the same criteria for Knowelege in chemistry vs. maths vs. theoretical physics. Seems like there is Epistemological Pluralism.

My favorite attempts to Solve epistemology were always the Engineering, champ attempts like baysean reliabilism. But then you run into the Normativity problem.

Its answer was really long but it is disagreeing with me that there cant be a universal epistemology. Here is a short excerpt:

Consider a hypothetical case. A historian establishes that an eclipse occurred on a particular date through independent contemporary records. An astronomer establishes the same proposition through a reconstruction of celestial motions. Assume that each investigation is sufficiently sound.

We have different evidence, different techniques, and different characteristic errors. Nevertheless, both investigators appear to know the same fact. The methodological differences alone give us little reason to conclude that their knowledge has fundamentally different natures.

A general account could say that both beliefs stand in an appropriate relationship to the truth, while explaining why that relationship is realized differently in the two investigations.
