Epistemological contextualism relies upon the possibility of an indexical interpretation of the knowledge operator, according to which the truth conditions of knowledge attributions exhibit a contextual variability in such a way that knowledge in one context does not entail knowledge in every context. By means of a notion of epistemic context defined on the basis of the notion of context developed by McCarthy and Buvaˇc in artificial intelligence, I show how an indexical interpretation of the knowledge operator can be formally modeled through a natural deduction system that enables classical reasoning among contexts governed by different concepts of knowledge.}}
