(1980) Outline of a nominalist theory of propositions, Dordrecht, Springer.
In "On Propositions: What They Are and How They Mean" (1919), Russell foresaw a way of approaching the problem of defining the proposition and of determining its ontological status that we have not yet discussed. The paper opens with the following statement: "A proposition may be defined as: What we believe when we believe truly or fasely".1 Several contemporary philosophers have preceded or followed Russell along this path full of obstacles.
