The concept of truth
Abstract: I will present an argument for the revision theory of truth. This theory comes in two flavors, and one of the flavors is distinctly less popular than the other. I will argue for the flavor that is less popular. The aim motivating the revision theory of truth is, and has always been, descriptive: to make sense of the actual functioning of the concept of truth. I will argue that the less popular version of the theory best captures the functions the concept of truth serves in our thinking. The talk will be self-contained; no previous acquaintance with the revision theory will be presupposed.
