Introduction
Crispin Wright’s work on vagueness has been extremely influential. This piece provides an overview of his contributions and the ways his views have changed over the forty-plus years he has been writing about the topic. Heck argues that Wright’s discussion of the Tachometer paradox provides us with the resources to disarm the Sorites paradox. Sadly, that still leaves us remarkably far from any positive account of the semantics of vague concepts. In his most recent work, Wright has pursued an ‘intuitionistic’ account of vagueness whose virtues and vices are described.
