BHA: truth

[Ruth Groff <rgroff@xxxxxxxx>]

hi guys,

I'm wondering if any of you who know anything at all about analytic
epistemology could help me out, off-list is fine, with some questions I'm
having reading through a few books in the area.

The first, really basic question is this:  what EXACTLY is the deflationary
theory - or approach, if there are a lot of versions - of truth, and how
EXACTLY is it different from correspondence?

I have a few questions beyond this, but this would be a good start (and I
can even link it all back to realism and Bhaskar...). I have asked everyone
I can think of to explain this to me, but my department is a bastion of
continental marxists, none of whom know a *THING* about this stuff.

I'd really appreciate it.

thanks,
r.
