Document Summary
Three times pass is needed in order to pass the course. => fail cannot be compensated, but you will only have to resit the fail and not the papers you passed. Lecture is divided into three parts: the domain of truth, theories of truth (philosophy, aims of interpretation in general. Difference between domain of truth and meaningfulness. Coherence theory of truth is the only scientific way for the three lecturers: the domain of truth. Any philosophical theory is a theory about the world. All of the theories find themselves in the domain of truth: creating a theory of truth on the basis of reasoned argumentation. If we try to understand platonic metaphysics we operate within the same realm. Relatively unproplematic from a methodological point of view. => just checking what a philosopher claims about truth. If you study philosophy you are not a philosopher but you just reconstruct their theories.
