Tristan Grøtvedt Haze

Meaning and Metaphysical Necessity (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book is about the idea that some true statements would have been true no matter how the world had turned out, while others could have been false. It develops and defends a version of the idea that we tell the difference between these two types of truths in part by reflecting on the meanings of words.
