  1. Intention-sensitive semantics.A. Stokke - 2010 - Synthese 175 (3):383-404.
    A number of authors have argued that the fact that certain indexicals depend for their reference-determination on the speaker’s referential intentions demonstrates the inadequacy of associating such expressions with functions from contexts to referents (characters). By distinguishing between different uses to which the notion of context is put in these argument, I show that this line of argument fails. In the course of doing so, I develop a way of incorporating the role played by intentions into a character-based semantics for (...)

  • Token-Reflexivity and Repetition.Alexandru Radulescu - 2018 - Ergo: An Open Access Journal of Philosophy 5:745-763.
    The classical rule of Repetition says that if you take any sentence as a premise, and repeat it as a conclusion, you have a valid argument. It's a very basic rule of logic, and many other rules depend on the guarantee that repeating a sentence, or really, any expression, guarantees sameness of referent, or semantic value. However, Repetition fails for token-reflexive expressions. In this paper, I offer three ways that one might replace Repetition, and still keep an interesting notion of (...)

  • The difference between indexicals and demonstratives.Alexandru Radulescu - 2018 - Synthese 195 (7):3173-3196.
    In this paper, I propose a new way to distinguish between indexicals, like “I” and “today”, and demonstratives, like “she” and “this”. The main test case is the second person singular pronoun “you”. The tradition would generally count it as a demonstrative, because the speaker’s intentions play a role in providing it with a semantic value. I present cross-linguistic data and explanations offered of the data in typology and semantics to show that “you” belongs on the indexical side, and argue (...)

  • Jorge Luis Borges, "Borges" e o "Eu": O exemplo literário de John Perry.Ulysses Pinheiro - 2012 - Dissertatio 35:177-194.
    Em uma palestra proferida em 2007, John Perry parte do conto “Borges e eu”, de autoria de Jorge Luis Borges, para tratar de um tema ligado à filosofia da linguagem e à filosofia da ação, unindo teses semânticas sobre termos lingüísticos a teses epistêmicas e metafísicas sobre o autoconhecimento e a natureza da identidade pessoal. Perry propõe duas interpretações rivais para o conto de Borges, optando pela segunda delas. Este artigo investiga algumas conseqüências para nossa compreensão do conceito de ação (...)
