Quine and Hartry Field have defended disquotationalist theories of this idea, while deflationary theories of this concept, such as those advanced by Frank Ramsey, hold that this concept has no substantive properties of its own. An article by Donald Davidson warns of "The Folly of Trying to Define" this idea, and Davidson himself endorsed a coherence theory of it. The "Meaning" of this term titles "A Sequel to 'Pragmatism'" written by William James, while Alfred Tarski provided a recursive definition of this concept for formal languages in terms of (*) satisfaction. F.H. Bradley proposed an identity theory of it and G.E. Moore and Bertrand Russell both espoused a correspondence theory of it, according to which it consists "in some form of correspondence between belief and fact." For 10 points, identify this philosophical concept, formal theories of which are often plagued by the Liar paradox.
