Comparing Fixed-Point and Revision Theories of Truth
In response to the liar’s paradox, Kripke developed the fixed-point semantics for languages expressing their own truth concepts. (Martin and Woodruff independently developed this semantics, but not to the same extent as Kripke.) Kripke’s work suggests a number of related fixed-point theories of truth for such languages. Gupta and Belnap develop their revision theory of truth in contrast to the ...
متن کاملNonclassical theories of truth
This chapter attempts to give a brief overview of nonclassical (-logic) theories of truth. Due to space limitations, we follow a victory-through-sacrifice policy: sacrifice details in exchange for clarity of big-picture ideas. This policy results in our giving all-too-brief treatment to certain topics that have dominated discussion in the non-classical-logic area of truth studies. (This is part...

متن کاملComparing Some Substructural Strategies Dealing with Vagueness
It is well-known that in combination with further premises that look less controversial, the tolerance principle – the constraint that if Pa holds, and a and b are similar in P -relevant respects, Pb holds as well – leads to contradiction, namely to the sorites paradox. According to many influential views of the sorites paradox (e.g. Williamson 1994), we therefore ought to reject the principle ...
متن کاملThe Strength of Truth-theories
Tarski’s classic paper “The Concept of Truth in Formalized Languages” is nicely representative of the state of logic in the 1930s: It is as much about what one cannot do as it is about what one can do. On the negative (or ‘limitative’) side, we have Tarski’s celebrated theorem on the indefinability of truth. On the positive (or ‘constructive’) side, we have Tarski’s demonstration that, for a la...
