FIELD’S SAVING TRUTH FROM PARADOX: SOME THINGS IT DOESN’T DO
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 July 2011
Abstract
I will discuss Field’s book mainly by comparison with Saul Kripke’s Outline of a Theory of Truth. I will point out important properties of Kripke’s “least fixed point” that are absent from Field’s constructions and theory. I do this not to demean Field’s superb work on truth but rather to suggest that there may be no really satisfactory conditional connective for languages containing their own truth predicates.
