Alternative Supervaluation for Kripke's Theory of Truth

MCMP – Mathematical Philosophy (Archive 2011/12)

About this episode

Caspar Storm Hansen (Aberdeen/Oslo) gives a talk at the Workshop on Groundedness (26-27 October, 2012) titled "Alternative Supervaluation for Kripke's Theory of Truth". Abstract: I will present a method of supervaluation for Kripke's theory of truth. It is different from Kripke's own method in that it employs trees, results in a compositional semantics, assigns the intuitively correct truth values to the sentences of a particularly tricky example of Gupta's, and is acceptable as an explication of the correspondence theory of truth.
