This question is of utmost importance to metaphysics, philosophy of language, philosophical logic and epistemology, raising in each of these areas and at their intersections a large number of issues related to creation, existence, reference, identity, modality, belief, assertion, imagination, pretense, etc. All these topics and many more are addressed in this collection, which brings together original essays written from various points of view by philosophers of diverse trends. These essays constitute major contributions to the current debates that the connection between truth and fiction continually enlivens, and give a sense of the directions in which research on this question is heading UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110326796 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783110326796 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783110326796/original ER -
