The word "bivalence" in example sentences

Ammonius interprets “it is not the same” as indicating a doctrine that sentences about future singular contingent events ˜divide the true and false™ (i.e., obey the principle of bivalence) but do so in an indefinite, ˜not in a definite manner™ ❋ Unknown (2009)

What has been called the ˜standard interpretation™ holds that Aristotle thought that, unlike such sentences about the past or present, sentences asserting future singular contingent facts are neither true nor false, exempting them from the principle of bivalence and avoiding the alleged deterministic consequence that contingency and chance are destroyed. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Protothetic is an absolute propositional calculus in the sense that the principle of bivalence is its theorem. ❋ Wole&324;ski, Jan (2009)

Thus, the Stoics accepted the principle of bivalence in its unrestricted form. ❋ Wole&324;ski, Jan (2009)

On one reading, Aristotle's response to this is to deny the principle of bivalence for future contingent statements: it is now neither true nor false that there will be a sea battle tomorrow. ❋ Baltzly, Dirk (2008)

Chrysippus in particular was convinced that bivalence and the law of excluded middle apply even to contingent statements about particular future events or states of affairs. ❋ Baltzly, Dirk (2008)

Realism about truth involves acceptance of the principle of bivalence ❋ Young, James O. (2008)

(The law of excluded middle says that for a proposition, p, and its contradictory, not-p, ˜(p or not-p)™ is necessarily true, while bivalence insists that the truth table that defines a connective like ˜or™ contains only two values, true and false.) ❋ Baltzly, Dirk (2008)

Though these and other developments in logic are interesting in their own right, the Stoic treatment of certain problems about modality and bivalence are more significant for the shape of Stoicism as a whole. ❋ Baltzly, Dirk (2008)

The matter is doubly confused, because the modern arguments for fatalism often emerge from the very considerations about bivalence that Aristotle discusses in ❋ Baltzly, Dirk (2008)

What he was committed to, from the moment he accepted bivalence of truth and falsity onwards, was that expressions of the various categories may be variously meaningful. ❋ Simons, Peter (2007)

Any statement that reaches beyond what we can in principle verify or refute (verify its negation) will be a counter-example to bivalence. ❋ Glanzberg, Michael (2006)

As Dummett says, the verificationist notion of truth does not appear to support bivalence. ❋ Glanzberg, Michael (2006)

Another important mark of realism expressed in terms of truth is the property of bivalence. ❋ Glanzberg, Michael (2006)

Hence, one important mark of realism is that it goes together with the principle of bivalence: every truth-bearer (sentence or proposition) is true or false. ❋ Glanzberg, Michael (2006)

(For the view that Aristotle does not reject the law of bivalence see Whitaker 1996.) ❋ Rice, Hugh (2006)

Black and white is so ugly, a bivalence like alternating current, lighting up electric chairs designed to kill your spirit. ❋ Unknown (2006)

Others, however, read Aristotle as rejecting not simple bivalence for future contingents but rather determinacy itself. ❋ Horn, Laurence R. (2006)

A theory of truth which substantiates bivalence, or a determinate reference relation, does most of the work of giving a realistic metaphysics. ❋ Glanzberg, Michael (2006)

[I am] bivalent that [I love her]. ❋ DrLuke (2019)

There are [many] [bivales] in [the ocean] ❋ Eduardo (2003)
