Denying the doctrine and changing the subject
Journal of Philosophy 70 (15):503-510 (1973)
Abstract
I discuss Quine's claim that anyone denying what we now take to be a logical truth would be using logical words in a novel way. I trace this to a confusions between outright denial and failure to assert, and assertion of a negation. (This abstract is written from memory decades after the article.)Author's Profile
