 In the first place, we can assess which attempts are satisfactory ((Ichikawa &amp; Steup 2018; Shope 1983; Littlejohn &amp; Carter 2021: Ch. 5), or whether all attempts are bound to fail (e.g., Williamson 2000, 2007). Alternatively, from a metaepistemological perspective, we may step back and ask what kind of thing we are doing when attempting to complete this schema? What is being investigated? Different answers here track different metaepistemological assumptions about the role of analyses in epistemology (Sosa 2017: 66–7). (This point applies generally to analyses in epistemology, though for illustrative purposes here, we will focus on the simple “S knows that p” analysis.)
