Intensionality and Truth: An Essay on the Philosophy of A.N. Prior

By Philip Hugly, C. Sayward, Charles Sayward

Book Overview

Prior's view on intensionality and truth is based on the principle that sentences never name, that what sentences say cannot be otherwise signified, that a sentence says what it says whatever the type of its occurrence, and that sentential quantification is neither eliminable, substitutional, nor referential. The text defends each of these principles.
