It discusses the import of quantifier variance in the model theory of mathematics. It advances an argument for the uniqueness of quantifier meaning in terms of Evert Beth's notion of implicit definition, and clarifies the oldest explicit formulation of quantifier variance: the one proposed by Rudolf Carnap. The volume further examines what it means that a quantifier can have multiple meanings, and addresses how existential vagueness can induce vagueness in our modal notions. Finally, the book explores the role played by quantifiers with respect to various kinds of semantic paradoxes, the logicality issue, ontological commitment, and the behavior of quantifiers in intensional contexts. 650 0 Language and logic. 650 0 Grammar, Comparative and general|xQuantifiers. 650 0 Logic, Symbolic and mathematical. 653 Ngọc test 700 1 Torza, Alessandro,|eeditor. 830 0 Synthese library ;|vv. 373. 907 .b76518292|b04-12-16|c09-29-15 910 RDA ENRICHED 910 ybp 910 Backstage 910 TOC 910 Hathi Trust report SPM 910 BROWNu 953 Việt Nam|b1940 970 11 |l1.|tIntroduction|cAlessandro Torza|fTorza, Alessandro|p1 970 11 |lpt.
