Abstract:
Chapter 5 moves beyond the simple paradoxes discussed in Chapters 2-4. The chapter applies the singularity approach to the traditional paradoxes of definability (or denotation), associated with Berry, Richard, and König. The chapter goes on to argue that there are two settings for Russell’s paradox, one in terms of the mathematical notion of set, and the other in terms of the logico-semantic notion of extension. The chapter then applies the singularity approach to Russell’s paradox for extensions. The chapter moves on to the case of truth, and applies the singularity approach to various versions of the Liar paradox, paying particular attention to the so-called strengthened Liar.

Abstract:
This chapter asks whether there is a notion of truth that applies to nonindexical sentences of English and, if there is, how that is to be explained. After showing that the liar paradox casts doubt on an attempt at capturing the meaning of ‘true’, the chapter proposes a novel notion that does seem to apply to nonindexical sentences of English—that of what the author calls default implication. Using this notion of default implication, the chapter recasts the initial attempt at capturing the meaning of ‘true’ and shows that this is not plagued by the consequences of the liar paradox.

Abstract:
In recent years there have been a number of books—both anthologies and monographs—that have focused on the liar paradox and, more generally, on the semantic paradoxes, either offering proposed treatments to those paradoxes or critically evaluating ones that occupy logical space. At the same time, there are a number of people who do great work in philosophy, who have various semantic, logical, metaphysical, and/or epistemological commitments that suggest that they should say something about the liar paradox, yet who have said very little, if anything, about that paradox or about the extant projects involving it. The purpose of this volume is to afford those philosophers the opportunity to address what might be described as reflections on the Liar.

Abstract:
This chapter follows recent work in philosophy, linguistics, and psychology, which rejects the standard, static picture of languages and highlights its context sensitivity—a dynamic theory of the nature of language. On the view advocated, human languages are things that we build on a conversation-by-conversation basis. The author calls such languages microlanguages. The chapter argues that thinking of languages in terms of microlanguages yields interesting consequences for how we should think about the liar paradox. In particular, we will see that microlanguages have admissible conditions that preclude liar-like sentences. On the view presented in the chapter, liar sentences are not even sentences of any microlanguage that we might construct (or assertorically utter). Accordingly, the proper approach to such a paradoxical sentence is to withhold the sentence—not permitting it to be admitted into our microlanguage unless, or until, certain sharpening occurs.

Abstract:
Chapter 7 puts the singularity theory to work on a number of semantic paradoxes that have intrinsic interest of their own. These include a transfinite paradox of denotation, and variations on the Liar paradox, including the Truth-Teller, Curry’s paradox, and paradoxical Liar loops. The transfinite paradox of denotation shows the need to accommodate limit ordinals. The Truth-Teller, like the Liar, exhibits semantic pathology-but, unlike the Liar, it does not produce a contradiction. The distinctive challenge of the Curry paradox is that it seems to allow us to prove any claim we like (for example, the claim that 2+2=5). Paradoxical Liar loops, such as the Open Pair paradox, extend the Liar paradox beyond single self-referential sentences. The chapter closes with the resolution of paradoxes that do not exhibit circularity yet still generate contradictions. These include novel versions of the definability paradoxes and Russell’s paradox, and Yablo’s paradox about truth.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews the major contextual theories of truth and paradox. These theories are all motivated by a certain kind of liar discourse, sometimes called the strengthened liar or revenge liar. A contextual framework for the analysis of this kind of discourse is presented, drawing on Stalnaker’s and Lewis’s—and others’—work on context-change. The various contextual theories of truth differ in their specific treatments of revenge discourses. According to Burge’s hierarchical theory and Simmons’s non-hierarchical singularity theory, the predicate “true” is a context-sensitive predicate. According to the hierarchical approaches of Parsons and Glanzberg, the context-dependence of truth is derived from the context-dependence of quantifier domains, while for Barwise and Etchemendy, it is situations that may expand with the context. Any approach to the liar faces the threat of new paradoxes tailored to that approach, and these contextual theories are no exception. Challenges to these contextual theories are examined.
