In the third volume in the Rutgers Lectures in Philosophy series,
distinguished philosopher Robert Stalnaker here offers a defense of
an ontology of propositions, and of some logical resources for
representing them. He offers an austere formulation of a theory of
propositions in a first-order extensional logic, but then uses the
commitments of this theory to justify an enrichment to modal logic
as an appropriate framework for regimented languages that are
constructed to represent any of our scientific and philosophical
commitments. His book adopts a self-consciously neo-Quinean
methodology, and argues that the theory that is developed helps to
motivate and clarify Quine's naturalistic metaphysical picture.
