----- 真理借助意义：分析/综合区别的辩护

ISBN: 9780199232192 出版年：2008 页码：249 Russell, Gillian Oxford University Press

The distinction between analytic and synthetic sentences - the idea that some sentences are true or false just in virtue of what they mean - is a famous focus of philosophical controversy. Gillian Russell reinvigorates the debate with a challenging new defence of the distinction, showing that it is compatible with semantic externalism.
