ZEMAN, Dan. Multiple Indexing Relativism about Predicates of Taste. Crítica (Méx., D.F.) [online]. 2019, vol.51, n.151, pp.5-34.  Epub 15-Abr-2020. ISSN 0011-1503.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iifs.18704905e.2019.01.

Focusing on predicates of taste, this paper puts forward a novel version of relativism, motivated by a recently discussed phenomenon: perspectival plurality. After showing that the phenomenon is problematic for at least some versions of relativism and discussing several possible answers on behalf of the relativist, I put forward my own version. The main feature of the proposal is the introduction in the index not of a single parameter for perspectives, but of a (possibly infinite) sequence of such parameters. In the last part of the paper, I defend the view against three objections.

Palavras-chave : semantics; perspectives; perspectival plurality; Lasersohn; “the paraphrasing strategy”.
