Brandom: Thesis: In favor of strong inferentialism, VsHyper-inferentialism: according to which the inferential structure is always sufficient for the content. >Content. --- II 45 Inferentialism/Brandom: Definition weak inferentialism: inferential structure is a necessary element for defining the conceptual. Definition strong inferentialism: an ample inferential structure is sufficient to explain the conceptual content. Definition Hyper-inferentialism: a closely understood inferential structure is sufficient - Definition ample (considering the circumstances, not only subject). Thesis: here a strong inferentialism is represented - closer to holism than to atomism. >Holism, >Atomism. - - - Newen I 165 VsBrandom/Newen/Schrenk: A: how can inferentialism explain the compositionality? - "It is set to full sentences, because there are inferences between them". Solution/Brandom: distinction singular term/predicate - B: how does it explain reference and truth? >Singular terms, >Predicates. Newen I 166 ad B: Reference/Brandom: Formation of equivalence classes of sentences whose position in the network of inferences remains intact when terms are replaced by coreferential terms. Truth/Brandom: twists the definition in a way that truth characterizes the inferential concept. - For this purpose, he looks at the position of sentences starting with "It is true" in our network of inferences.}, note = { Bra I R.
