Aristotle’, s theory of truth, which has been the most influential account of the concept of truth from Antiquity onwards, spans several areas of philosophy: philosophy of language, logic, ontology and epistemology. In this book, Paolo Crivelli discusses all the main aspects of Aristotle’, s views on truth and falsehood. He analyses in detail the main relevant passages, addresses some well-known problems of Aristotelian semantics, and assesses Aristotle’, s theory from the point of view of modern analytic philosophy. In the process he discusses most of the literature on Aristotle’, s semantic theory to have appeared in the last two centuries. His book vindicates and clarifies the often repeated claim that Aristotle’, s is a correspondence theory of truth. It will be of interest to a wide range of readers working in both ancient philosophy and modern philosophy of language.
