Alfred Tarski on Rule Following - Dictionary of Arguments
Wright I 284 Tarski/rule-following/McDowell: When we say ""Diamonds are hard" is true if and only if diamonds are hard", then we are just as heavily involved in the right side, as alleged by the reflections on the rule-following. It is tempting to overlook that and to think that somehow the right side presents a merely possible fact which is presented as non-conceptualized configuration of "things-in-themselves". >Tarski scheme, cf. >Quasi-quotation, >Kripke's Wittgenstein._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
