This Element looks at Quine's arguments against the concepts of analyticity. It mentions Boghossian's distinction between epistemic and metaphysical accounts of analyticity. It shows how analyticity is related to truth, necessity and questions of ontology. The relation of analyticity to the axiomatic method in mathematics is mentioned.
