In Carlo Nicolai & Johannes Stern (eds.), Modes of Truth: The Unified Approach to Truth, Modality, and Paradox (2021)
Abstract |
The notions of belief and truth frequently interact in philosophical discourse but, surprisingly, a coherent semantics for such discourse is still wanting. Indeed, a number of
puzzles stand in way of a satisfactory semantic account of the notion of truth in doxastic
contexts. In this paper we discuss these puzzles and develop a more satisfactory semantic
account that combines ideas from contextualist theories of attitude reports and Awareness
semantics for non-idealized belief.
