Comments on Fuzzy Logic and Higher-Order Vagueness by Nicholas J. J. Smith
Original language description
The paper supplements N.J.J. Smith's fuzzy plurivaluationistic semantics of vagueness with a logical justification. Fuzzy plurivaluations are explained as the classes of models of theories in fuzzy logic expressing the meaning postulates of vague terms.Consequently, supertruth corresponds to deducibility in fuzzy logic and penumbral connections to the axioms of the theory. In the logic-based fuzzy plurivaluationistic picture, vagueness is reduced to semantic indeterminacy, with graduality as only an optional ingredient, in contrast to Smith's definition of vagueness.
