Book Description
Aristotle’s theory of truth, which has been the most influential account of the concept of truth from Antiquity onwards, spans several areas of philosophy:philosophy of language, logic, ontology and epistemology. In this 2004 book, Paolo Crivelli discusses all the main aspects of Aristotle’s views on truth and falsehood. He analyses in detail the main relevant passages, addresses some well-known problems of Aristotelian semantics, and assesses Aristotle’s theory from the point of view of mode analytic philosophy. In the process he discusses most of the literature on Aristotle’s semantic theory to have appeared in the last two centuries. His book vindicates and clarifies the often repeated claim that Aristotle’s is a correspondence theory of truth. It will be of interest to a wide range of readers working in both ancient philosophy and mode philosophy of language.
