3. Truth / F. Semantic Truth / 1. Tarski's Truth / b. Satisfaction and truth
Satisfaction is 'truth in a model', which is a model of 'truth' [Shapiro]
     Full Idea: In a sense, satisfaction is the notion of 'truth in a model', and (as Hodes 1984 elegantly puts it) 'truth in a model' is a model of 'truth'.
     From: Stewart Shapiro (Foundations without Foundationalism [1991], 1.1)
     A reaction: So we can say that Tarski doesn't offer a definition of truth itself, but replaces it with a 'model' of truth.
