The theory of meaning in analytical philosophy
pp. 35-56
Résumé
What form should a theory that specifies the meaning of all the sentences of a particular language take? I will follow the convention of calling such a theory for a particular language a ‘meaning theory’ (MT) for that language, and will reserve the phrase ‘theory of meaning’ for a theory (together with the arguments for it) about the correct form for a MT.
