Remarks on Compositionality and Weak Axiomatic Theories of Truth

Publications: Contribution to journalArticlePeer Reviewed

Abstract

The paper draws attention to an important, but apparently neglected distinction relating to axiomatic theories of truth, viz. the distinction between weakly and strongly truth-compositional theories of truth. The paper argues that the distinction might be helpful in classifying weak axiomatic theories of truth and examines some of them with respect to it.
