Naming and analyticity
Theoria 89 (1):57-72 (2022)
Abstract
My aim in this paper is to connect naming and analyticity and to argue that, like “Hesperus is Hesperus”, “Hesperus is Phosphorus” is analytic. In the paper, I also discuss several other unexpected cases of analytic truth like “Aristotle existed”.Author's Profile
