I argue that the procedure of content recarving may be interpreted as an operation that while restricting the subject matter of a sentence, performs a generalization on what the sentence says about its subject matter. The characterization of the recarving operation is given in the setting of Yablo’s theory of subject matter and it is based on the relation of determination between properties. The main advantage of the proposal is its generality, for it is applicable not just to the case of abstraction principles.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Manuscrito: Revista Internacional de Filosofia}, author={Ciccarelli, Vincenzo}, year={2019}, month={set.}, pages={45–90} }
