Formal Representation of Proper Names in Accordance with a Descriptive Theory of Reference
Polish Journal of Philosophy 8 (1):37-52 (2014)
Abstract
In this paper I present a way of formally representing proper names in accordance with a description theory of reference–fixing and show that such arepresentation makes it possible to retain the claim about the rigidity of proper names and is not vulnerable to Kripke’s modal objection.Author's Profile
