Well, just to be picky -- it's apparenly caching -- Kant, among others,
tells us that the correspondence theory of truth was roundly lampooned
already in ancient times, and Peirce invites the reader to his inquiry
on truth by mentioning the correspondence theory, but immediately adds
that this can afford nothing more than a "nominal definition" of truth. (03)
I think it is fair to say that key, active ingredients
of truth are missing from correspondence theory recipe. (04)
