| Pragmatist Theories of Truth: Truth According to James | - ”Truth,” any dictionary will tell you, is a property of some of our ideas: those that ‘agree’ with ‘reality.’ - This pragmatists accept. But they have a distinctive take on ‘agreement’ and on ‘reality.’ - “Grant an idea or belief to be true”…”what concrete difference will its being true make to anyone’s actual life? What, in short, is the truth’s cash-value in experiential terms?” - “True ideas are those that we can assimilate, validate, corroborate and verify. False ideas are those that we cannot.” p. 97 |
| Pragmatist Theories of Truth: Two Refinements to James' Theory | 1. ”Truth lives…for the most part on a credit system. Our thoughts and beliefs ‘pass,’ so long as nothing challenges them, just as bank-notes pass as nobody refutes them.” p. 100 2. “You accept my verification of one thing. I yours of another. We trade on each other’s truths. But beliefs verified concretely by somebody are the posts of the whole superstructure.” p. 100 |
| Pragmatist Theories of Truth: Two Implications of James' Theory | 1. “Truth happens to an idea. It becomes true, is made true by events. Its verity is in fact an event.” p. 97 2. “Truth is made, just as health, wealth and strength are made, in the course of experience.” p. 104 |
| Pragmatist Theories of Truth: Truth According to Peirce | From reflections similar to James’s, is drawn to assert: “The opinion which is fated to be ultimately agreed upon by all who investigate, is what we mean by truth, and the object represented in this opinion is the real.” |
| Pragmatist Theories of TruthL An Objection to Peirce's Theory | - An objection: This makes reality depend on what is thought of it (and that can’t be right). - The reply: “[R]eality is independent, not necessarily of thought in general, but only of what you or I or any finite number of men might think about it.” |
