摘要

构图虚无主义者认为唯一存在的对象是简单的。然而,非虚无主义者相信复合物体的存在,并挑战虚无主义者解释,如果复合物体不存在,为什么会有关于椅子、桌子等的真句。人们提出了不同的虚无主义观点来解释这一点(意译策略和真理制造者理论),但我认为他们是不成功的(要么他们没有成功地意译每一个关于复合物体的句子,要么他们没有准确地说明这些句子的真理制造者)。我将提出一种新的truthmaker理论,它利用了Cameron的truthmaker理论和van Inwagen的释义策略的资源,可以给出这样的解释,并且不会面临其他理论的问题。因此,我们有一个很好的理由接受这个造真者理论作为最好的虚无主义方式来容纳显然是关于复合对象的句子。

Sentences Apparently About Composite Objects: True Even Without Composite Objects
Abstract A compositional nihilist believes that the only objects that exist are simples. However, a non-nihilist believes in the existence of composite objects and challenges the nihilist to explain why there are true sentences about chairs, tables, etc., if composite objects do not exist. Different nihilist views have been suggested to explain this (the paraphrase strategy and the truthmaker theory), but I believe that they are unsuccessful (either they do not successfully paraphrase every sentence apparently about composite objects, or they are not precise about the truthmakers of those sentences). I will suggest that a new truthmaker theory, which uses resources from Cameron’s truthmaker theory and van Inwagen’s paraphrase strategy, can give such an explanation and does not face the problems of other theories. Therefore, we have a good reason to accept this truthmaker theory as the best nihilist way to accommodate sentences apparently about composite objects.
