PROPOSITION <br />
It is used to refer to some or all of the following: the<br />
primary bearers of truth-‐‐value, the objects of belief<br />
and other "ʺpropositional aNitudes"ʺ (i.e., what is<br />
believed, doubted, etc.), the referents of that-‐‐clauses<br />
and the meanings of declarative sentences.<br />
Propositions are the sharable objects of aNitudes and<br />
the primary bearers of truth and falsity. This<br />
stipulation rules out certain candidates for<br />
propositions, including thought-‐‐ and uNerance-‐tokens<br />
which are not sharable, and concrete events<br />
or facts, which cannot be false.
