Modes of Truth The Unified Approach to Truth, Modality, and Paradox
Nicolai, Carlo
Modes of Truth The Unified Approach to Truth, Modality, and Paradox - Taylor & Francis 2021 - 1 electronic resource (304 p.) - Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy .
Open Access
The aim of this volume is to open up new perspectives and to raise new research questions about a unified approach to truth, modalities, and propositional attitudes. The volume's essays are grouped thematically around different research questions. The first theme concerns the tension between the theoretical role of the truth predicate in semantics and its expressive function in language. The second theme of the volume concerns the interaction of truth with modal and doxastic notions. The third theme covers higher-order solutions to the semantic and modal paradoxes, providing an alternative to first-order solutions embraced in the first two themes. This book will be of interest to researchers working in epistemology, logic, philosophy of logic, philosophy of language, philosophy of mathematics, and semantics.
