 Define Philosophy. Be able to give example how to know if the

 Doing philosophy = pursuit of wisdom; = Loving wisdom.
 3 theories of truth
 Correspondence theory
 Coherence theory
 Pragmatic theory
Correspondence theory – It is the most popular theory which states that the
truth of proposition is determined by its relationship to the way things actually
are in the world. Hence, for this realist theory, a proposition is true if, and only
if, what it contends relates to what is real. Truth, therefore corresponds to
facts; hence the truth is absolute.
Coherence theory – It contends that a proposition is true if it is consistent with
a system of other proposition considered true.
Pragmatic theory – This theory holds that a proposition is true if it is useful.
Pragmatics linked the nature of truth with the principle of action and the
concept of utility.
