- Title
Introduction: Foundational Issues in Philosophical Semantics.
- Authors
Pavese, Carlotta; Iacona, Andrea
- Abstract
This issue encompasses eight papers that have been presented at the Topoi Conference 2018 - I Foundational Issues in Philosophical Semantics i - which took place in Turin in June 2018 and was organized by the I Center for Logic, Language, and Cognition i (LLC) at the University of Turin. Foster noted that given a theory of the sort Davidson envisioned, for a language L, there will be many equally true theories whose theorems pair endlessly many sentences of L with very different specifications of whether or not those sentences are true. In "Truth conditional cognitivism and the lexical problem", Fabrizio Calzavarini discusses a foundational problem for I truth-conditional cognitivism i - the view that truth-conditional formal semantics for natural language is a theory of semantic competence.
