Property theory: The Type-Free Approach v. the Church Approach.George Bealer - 1994 - Journal of Philosophical Logic 23 (2):139 - 171.details In a lengthy review article, C. Anthony Anderson criticizes the approach to property theory developed in Quality and Concept (1982). That approach is first-order, type-free, and broadly Russellian. Anderson favors Alonzo Church’s higher-order, type-theoretic, broadly Fregean approach. His worries concern the way in which the theory of intensional entities is developed. It is shown that the worries can be handled within the approach developed in the book but they remain serious obstacles for the Church approach. The discussion focuses on: (1) (...)

Russell's Revenge: A Problem for Bivalent Fregean Theories of Descriptions.Jan Heylen - 2017 - Pacific Philosophical Quarterly 98 (4):636-652.details Fregean theories of descriptions as terms have to deal with improper descriptions. To save bivalence various proposals have been made that involve assigning referents to improper descriptions. While bivalence is indeed saved, there is a price to be paid. Instantiations of the same general scheme, viz. the one and only individual that is F and G is G, are not only allowed but even required to have different truth values.

Extensional and intensional collectives and the de re/ de dicto distinction.Antony Galton & Zena Wood - 2016 - Applied ontology 11 (3):205-226.details Expressions designating collectives, such as “the committee” or “the ships in the port”, may be interpreted de re or de dicto, depending on context, according as they pick out collectives defined by their members or collectives defined by some criterion for membership. We call these E-collectives and I-collectives respectively, and in this paper we explore in depth the relationship between these two categories. In particular, we identify important respects in which they differ, regarding the nature of the dependence of the (...) Download Export citation Bookmark 2 citations

Temporal predication and identity.Evan K. Jobe - 1976 - Australasian Journal of Philosophy 54 (1):65 – 71.details The article attempts to resolve the problem raised by richard sharvey's arguments supporting the thesis that temporal contexts present difficulties for quantification similar to those presented by alethic modal contexts. to this end a concept of temporally relativized identity for physical objects is introduced and explicated within a four-dimensional space-time view of the world. this in turn permits the introduction of the notion of "restricted" physical objects and the notion of "extended" physical objects. it is then shown how the use (...)

A note on plural pronouns.H. M. Cartwright - 2000 - Synthese 123 (2):227 - 246.details Gareth Evans'' proposal, as amended by Steven Neale –that a definite pronoun with a quantifiedantecedent that does not bind it has the sense ofa definite description – has been challenged inthe singular case by appeal to counter-examplesinvolving failure of the uniqueness condition forthe legitimacy of a singular description. Thischallenge is here extended to the plural.Counter-examples are provided by cases in which aplural description `the Fs'' does not denote,despite the propriety of the use of `they'' or`them'' it is to replace, because (...)
