چکیده
parenthetical references are to the pages of this book. Kripke, “Outline of a theory of truth,” Journal of Philosophy 72 (1975), 690-716; reprinted in Robert L. Martin (ed.), Recent Essays on Truth and the Liar Paradox (Oxford: Clarendon Press,1984), pp. 53-81. A formal difference between Maudlin’s and Kripke’s constructions is that Maudlin’s language has both a truth and a falsity predicate, while Kripke’s has only a truth predicate. I shall neglect this difference below, since it as no substantive consequences for my argument. For Philosophy and Phenomenological Research
