"A Realistic Theory of Truth"
"A Realistic Theory of Truth" suggests that statements are true if they accurately reflect reality or the way things actually are. It emphasizes that truth is about correspondence to facts—when our beliefs or descriptions match the observable world. This theory treats truth as objective, meaning it exists independently of our thoughts or feelings. For example, saying “the sky is blue” is true if, in reality, the sky is indeed blue. Overall, it views truth as a reliable connection between our statements and the actual state of affairs in the world.
