Abstract: A response to a paper by Frank Jackson. Although philosophers sometimes defend certain ‘analyses’ as analytic or a priori truths, such analyses are far from obviously true and are defended inductively. Contrary to Jackson's claim, the rejection of analyticity is based on consideration of central cases.
Keywords: a priori, analyticity, aprioricity, conceptual analysis, Frank Jackson,
