• The correspondence theory of truth.
• The coherence theory of truth.

fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with

there are 54 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display

Course objectives

As an introduction serves a comparison of real processes with their model forming and interpretation. Follows an exposition of two mutually incongruous conceptions, on one side Chomsky's innate dispositions, and on the other side inspirations by Foucault and Derrida. As a conclusion a broader (and modernized) introduction into the questionable truth theory has been presented.

Learning outcomes

The student wil be able to substantiate in a concrete way by various authors the recent development of the theoretical background od language.

Syllabus

• Some new reflections on reductionism.
• "To represent", or about signs.
• "To speak", or a theory of verbs.
• "To classify", or a system and method.
• "To exchange", or various types of communication.
• "To deconstruct", to make a "reconstruction"?
• In between of an anthropomorphic interpretation of nature and a physiomorphic self-interpretation of man.
• Interlude: Some paradigms "in the game".
• A metaphor within the theory of knowledge, or the problem of the inforrmation value and the mechanism of picturesque speech.
• First: the performative theory of truth.
• The correspondence theory of truth.
• The coherence theory of truth.

Teaching methods

The lecturer has ceased to concentrate on projecting slides which when read during the lecture, prevent from directly following the presented course of ideas. The lesson is usually introduced by some updating (news concerning interesting applications of language expressions, anniversaries of personalities famous in the branch, etc.). To draw attention to undecided or pending problems in this sphere is a priority.

Assessment methods

2 credits on the basis of submitting 1 commensurate essay.
