Sažetak
The aim of the paper is to present the theory of truth set out by Edo Pivčević and comment on its originality. This in turn means that the paper will firstly elaborate some background of Pivčević’s theory and his views about other theories of truth, what will set the stage for an elaboration of Pivčević’s theory itself. The elaboration of his theory will include his early draft as presented in his 1974 article “Truth as Structure” and a mature version of the theory found in the book What is Truth? (1997). Pivčević’s attitude towards truth will progress from the stance that the nature of truth is reflected in the structure of truth claims to the claim that truth is an event that survives as long as there exist conditions for its occurrence and does not exist until it happens. In order to put Pivčević’s theory into perspective, his theory will be compared and contrasted with minimalist views on truth and Davidson’s construal of the issue.
