What Mathematical Theories of Truth Should be Like (and Can be)

Abstract

Hannes Leitgeb formulated eight norms for theories of truth in his paper: `What Theories of Truth Should be Like (but Cannot be'). We shall present in this paper a theory of truth for suitably constructed languages which contain the first-order language of set theory, and prove that it satisfies all those norms.
