Supervaluationism and Fara’s Argument Concerning Higher-Order Vagueness
Pablo Cobreros · Palgrave Macmillan UK eBooks · 2011
There is an intuitive appeal to truth-value gaps in the case of vagueness. The idea is that the facts that determine the meaning of vague expressions (facts about use, most likely) left unsettled for a range of cases whether the expression applies. This sort of semantic unsettledness has been taken for a long time as a proper motivation for truth-value gaps; since it is unsettled whether the expression applies the corresponding sentence is neither true nor false. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
