Analyticity - An Unfinished Business in Possible World Semantics

Author

Editor

  • H Lagerlund
  • R Sliwinski

Summary, in English

The goal of this paper is to consider how the notion of analyticity can be dealt with in model-theoretical terms. The standard approach to possible-world semantics allows us to define logical truth and necessity, but analyticity is considerably more difficult to account for.
