After an introductory chapter on the Sorites paradox, which exposes the various forms the paradox can take and some of the responses that have been pursued, the book proceeds with a chapter on vagueness and metaphysics, which covers important questions concerning vagueness that arise in connection with the deployment of certain key metaphysical notions. Subsequent chapters address the following: vagueness and logic, which discusses the sort of model theory that is suggested by the main, rival accounts of vagueness; vagueness and meaning, which focuses on contextualist, epistemicist, and indeterminist theories; vagueness and observationality; vagueness within linguistics, which focuses on approaches that take comparison classes into account; and the idea that vagueness in law is typically extravagant and that extravagant vagueness is a necessary feature of legal systems.. . | 出版日期 | Book 2011 | 关键词 | Language; Logic; Meaning; Metaphysics; Vagueness | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-0375-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-3550-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-0375-9Series ISSN 2214-9775 Series E-ISSN 2214-9783 | issn_series | 2214-9775 | copyright | Springer Netherlands 2011 |
