Truth, Meaning and the Analysis of Natural Language

Book excerpt: “A striking turn in the history of philosophy over recent decades has been the spread and growth of analytic philosophy in continental Europe as a major force. Paolo Casalegno was one of the best minds in the generation responsible for that change. His essays in the philosophy of logic and language are remarkable for their rigour, their originality, their good sense, and the depth of knowledge behind them.” — Timothy Williamson, Wykeham Professor of Logic, New College, Oxford “Paolo Casalegno was a brilliant and probing philosopher whose work contains many fundamental insights and challenges. It is wonderful to have this collection of his most important papers.” — Paul Boghossian, Silver Professor, New York University
