It argues against the view that sees presuppositions as an indirect counterpart of the direct speech act of assertion and proposes instead that they are much more similar to the direct speech act of assumption. More concretely, it suggests…

    10th November 2020 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
    A virtual seminar by Zoom The University, ¾«¶«´«Ã½, United Kingdom

    Abstract. — Precisifications of certain informal concepts could be thought of as instances of conceptual engineering: the concept of a Turing machine (human effective computability), the notion of a Kripke structure (possibility), the Kolmogorov axioms (probability), Tarski’s definition of truth in formal languages, to name just a few. Should we regard the technical notions these formalisms define as…
