Reference and Beyond: Essays in Philosophy of Language
Michael Devitt
This book is a selection of papers by Michael Devitt in philosophy of language, accompanied by many new footnotes and postscripts. A dominant theme is the semantics of proper names, definite descriptions, and demonstratives. The book argues that these terms have conventional "referential" uses to express "singular" thoughts.
