dc.description.abstract | This thesis aims at examining and evaluating Quine’s objections to modal logic. In the history of the study of modality there has been an effort to offer a system that is capable of putting the subject in question out formally; however, the most accepted one today is the possible worlds semantics created by Kripke. Hence, the investigation will begin with a short introduction to modal logic in order to continue with a powerful tool at hand. The next step will be an examination of Quine’s objections from his articles, starting with his 1943 article and ending with 1971. After presenting the objections, I will give the accounts of the philosophers who have responded to his objections. And after each objection and response, I discussed whether Quine’s points still have a philosophical weight. | |
