Questions about the nature of truth are as old as philosophy itself.
Recently, however, there has been a resurgence of interest in issues
surrounding the relationship between truth and the world. What is
truth? On the one hand, it seems obvious that it is something that
applies to the things we think and say. Many of our beliefs about the
world, and sentences describing it are, we think, true. On the other
hand, it seems intimately connected with the world we think and speak
about, for it is in virtue of the way the world is that many of our
sentences and beliefs are true. This conference will investigate this
relationship between truth and reality. Some of the topics covered
may include: truthmakers, realism and anti-realism, correspondence
theories of truth, deflationism and truth in ethics.

The conference will be a tribute to Professor Alan Musgrave, who has
led the Otago Philosophy Department for the last 36 years. Alan has
been a significant contributor to the philosophical literature on the
issues which form the focus of this conference.
