Abstract
- Presents the author's comments on Gideon Rosen's 'fictionalist' analysis of modality, and how it seems to have surmounted the problems which Rosen and others have thrown at it. The author's argument that further reflection on a problem that Rosen himself raises in his original paper points to a difficulty which undermines the merits of the analysis; Other theories on the subject, including the plurality of worlds; Conclusions.
