Abstract. In this article I propose a new problem for the classical analysis of
\nknowledge (as justified true belief) and all analyses belonging to its legacy. The gist
\nof my argument is that truth as a condition for a belief to be knowledge is
\nproblematic insofar there is no definition of truth. From this, and other remarks
\nrelating to the possibility of defining truth (or lack thereof) and about what truth
\ntheories fit our thoughts about knowledge, I conclude that as long as truth is
\nunquestioningly taken as a condition of knowing, knowledge can never be
\ndefined in a way that could satisfy our intuitions about it.<\/p>\n

Keywords: knowledge, truth, pseudo-concept, definition, correspondence theory, intuition<\/p>\n
