The pragmatic definition of proposition in terms of assertion or assertability

Paul Gochet

pp. 60-72

Abstract

Thus, though we may predicate of a certain proposition… that it is true or that it is false, what this ultimately means is, that any and every thinker who might at any time assert the proposition would be either exempt or not exempt from error.1
