Truth as Meaning

Davidson views language as a human activity, not an abstract system of formal rules. His criteria of success are related to accounting for human linguistic behavior.

Why would you want to take a theory of truth to be a theory of meaning, instead of just providing a theory of meaning?

  1. Extensionalism
  2. Circularity
  3. There are no meanings.
