DESCRIPTION:<p>Jonathan Berg (Haifa) will present "Putting Frege&rsquo\;s Puzzle to Kripke&rsquo\;s Test" at 11 on 9 March in Old Arts 156.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>ABSTRACT:</p>\n<p>Saul Kripke proposes the following test:</p>\n<p>If someone alleges that a certain phenomenon in English is a counterexample to a given analysis\, consider a hypothetical language which (as much as possible) is like English except that the analysis is&nbsp\;<em>stipulated</em>&nbsp\;to be correct.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Imagine such a hypothetical language introduced into a community and spoken by it.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;<em>If the phenomenon in question would still arise in a community that spoke such a hypothetical language (which may not be English)\, then the fact that it arises in English cannot disprove the hypothesis that the analysis is correct for English."</em>&nbsp\;("Speaker's Reference and Semantic Reference\,"&nbsp\;&nbsp\;<em>Midwest Studies in Philosophy\,</em>&nbsp\;2 (1977)\, 255-76.)</p>\n<p>Frege&mdash\;or at least\, some Fregeans&mdash\;argue that substitution failure of coreferential names in belief contexts disproves the theory of direct reference. How well does the Fregean objection hold up to Kripke&rsquo\;s test? And how much does it matter?</p>\n<br>
