Abstract

AbstractFriederike Moltmann has recently proposed an account of truth-bearers that draws on Kazimierz Twardowski’s action/product distinction. Her account is meant to provide a third way between the dominant view of primary truth-bearers as mind-independent entities and the recently revived construal of them as mental or linguistic acts. This paper argues that there isno roomfor Twardowskian accounts because they are based on a notion of “nonenduring product” that defies comprehension, andno needfor them because the linguistic data that Twardowskians take to refute the act-theoretic approach can, in fact, be handled by that approach.
