Abstract

Résumé — L’interprétation de la sémantique modale bidimensionnelle fait aujourd’hui l’objet de nombreuses discussions et confrontations. En remontant à Signification et nécessité et en rappelant les bases de l’analyse de Carnap, on peut montrer que les deux dimensions de l’intension forment un développement naturel de son fonctionnalisme. Mais Carnap était sensible à l’engagement théorique des propriétés. Ce type d’engagement, établi à partir d’un exemple simple, offre un argument général en faveur de l’interprétation métasémantique du cadre bidimensionnel.— The interpretation of 2-dimensional modal semantics has given rise to much controversy over the last couple of decades. By reverting to the main lines of Carnap’s analysis in Meaning and Necessity, it can be shown that the distinction between two dimensions of intension can be regarded as a natural outcome of Carnap’s functionalism. However, Carnap was not unconcerned about theoretical commitment of properties. The inevitability of such a commitment, which can be demonstrated with the help of a simple example, provides an overall argument in favour of the so-called « meta-semantic » interpretation of the 2-dimensional framework
