Abstract

In this paper we present a first order epistemic logic that incorporates the essentially finite character of what is actually known by any knower. Our logic and language allows us to represent familiarity with individuals including individual situations. It is also a logic of limited awareness in the manner of [FH88]. It is adequate for the syntactic characterization of the shared-situation account of common knowledge [Bar89]. Finally, it is sound and complete with respect to the presented semantics.
