Among the many people who have helped me in articulating the ideas in this paper, I would like to express my gratitude to John Etchemendy, Hartry Field, Mario Gómez, James Higginbotham, Paul Horwich, Ramón Jansana, Ignacio Jané, Josep Maciá, Begoña Navarrete, Stephen Schiffer and Robert Stalnaker. The paper has greatly improved both in truthfulness and in clarity because of their comments, criticisms and suggestions; any remaining falsehood or confusion, however, should most probably be blamed on my stubbornness. The first version of the paper was completed while I was a visiting scholar to the Center for the study of Language and Information, Stanford University. I thank the CSLI for the warm and encouraging atmosphere I found there, and the Spanish DGICYT for the grant that made possible my stay at the CSLI. This paper is part of the research project PS94-0244 funded by the DGICYT.
