Theory of Truth and Theory of Meaning in Kant

The topic of the present paper is the relation between the theory of truth and the theory of meaning in Kant's philosophy. I focus on this relation to show that the possibility to provide an explanatorily adequate concept of truth depends on the capacity to clarify how the meaning of judgement is constituted. I argue that the logical definition of truth falls short because of the inability of logic to provide us with a theory of meaning (rather than with a criterion of truth). This allows us to shed light on the project of the transcendental analytic as being a 'logic of truth', i.e., a theory of the structure of the semantic representation being conveyed by the judging activity.
