Horwichian Minimalism and the Generalization Problem

Challenges to Deflationary Theories of Truth

“…For that reason, I have not addressed the issue in this paper. For considerations regarding T-deflationism and the semantic paradoxes, see Armour-Garb andBeall (2001, 2003), Field (2008), and the papers collected in Armour- Garb and Beall (2005), Beall and Armour-Garb (2005) and Priest, Beall and Armour-Garb (2004). There is a third worry that I shall not be able to discuss in this paper, which is known as the ''Determination Argument.''…”

“…For attempts to prove at least some such ‘true’‐involving generalizations, see Field (1994, 2001, 2006), Hill (2002), and Horwich (1998, 2001, 2009). For replies to Horwich, see Armour‐Garb (2010, 2011), Gupta (1993), and Soames (1999).…”

Minimalism, supervaluations and fixed points

“…For any φ ∈ L + , any model, N , for the base language L and any set of (codes of) sentences X, |ψ| s N ,X is defined in the following way: 11 This is a variant of a general problem Horwich has to face. For more details, responses and rejoinders on this issue see, for example, Gupta (1993a,b), Soames (1997Soames ( , 1999, Armour-Garb (2004, 2010, Raatikainen (2005), Horwich (1998, page 137), Horwich (2010b, pp. 43-45, 92-96) and Oms (2018).…”

Conceivability, Minimalism and the Generalization Problem

“…See, for instance,Gupta (1993a, b);Soames (1997Soames ( , 1999;Armour-Garb (2004, 2010; and Raatikainen (2005). 10 A version of the same problem was put forward byTarski (1983, 257).11 Soames (1999, 247).12 Horwich (2010b, 43-45, 92-96).…”
