    Vagueness in Context

     
    Vagueness in Context

    Description

    Stewart Shapiro develops an account of the meaning, function, and logic of vague terms in an idealized version of a natural language. The key feature is that extensions of vague terms vary in the course of conversations and, in some cases, a speaker can go either way without sinning against the meaning of the words or the non-linguistic facts.
