Marian David defends the correspondence theory of truth by contrasting it with the disquotational theory of truth, its current major rival. He develops the disquotational theory in rich detail - more than has been available in previous literature - to demonstrate that it is not a tenable theory of truth, as it has too many absurd consequences.
