Abstract
This paper undertakes a comparison of theories of truth and the solutions to the paradox of the liar advanced by Thomas Bradwardine (c. 1290–1349), Jean Buridan (c. 1295–1358), and Alfred Tarski (1901–1983). In addition, it offers a brief criticism to Read's point of views as expounded in his paper: The liar and the new T-schema.
