Abstract

In The Connectives, Lloyd Humberstone offers an interpretation of A. J. Ayer’s emotivism using W. S. Cooper’s semantics for ordinary logic. In this discussion note, I argue that this proposed interpretation fails to stay true to Ayer’s view.

Keywords

Classical logic; dual content; emotivism; ordinary logic; transparent semantics.
