Vagueness and Thought

ISBN: 9780198712060 出版年：2018 页码：361 Bacon, Andrew Oxford University Press

Vagueness is the study of concepts that admit borderline cases. The epistemology of vagueness concerns attitudes we should have towards propositions we know to be borderline. On this basis Andrew Bacon develops a new theory of vagueness in which vagueness is fundamentally a property of propositions, explicated in terms of its role in thought.
