• Resumen

  • A traditional view is that all necessary truths are analytic. A frequent objection is that certain claims of color incompatibility � e.g., �Nothing is both red and green all over� � are necessarily true but not analytic. I argue that this objection to the traditional view fails because such color incompatibility claims are either analytic or contingent.
