This summarizes talks given at the Italian logical conference in San Gimignano December 1983, at the workshop “Theories of Meaning” at Villa di Mondeggi in June 1985, and at the European Logic colloquium in Paris-Orsay in July 1985. There is some overlap with the more detailed paper “Dummett on a Theory of Meaning and Its Impact on Logic” (in B. Taylor (ed.), Michael Dummett: Contributions to Philosophy, Martinus Nijhoff 1987). Besides references given there, I want to mention Göran Sundholm's chapter “Proof Theory and Meaning” in G. Gabbay and F. Guenthner (eds.), A Handbook of Philosophical Logic, Vol. III, Reidel, 1986 and Per Martin-Löf's lectures “On the Meanings of the Logical Constants and the Justifications of the Logical Laws” in C. Bernardi and P. Pagli (eds.), Atti degli Incontri di Logica Matematica, Vol. 2, Università di Siena 1984, which are highly germane to the present paper.
