Abstract

This paper discusses some remarks Kaplan made in ‘Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice’ concerning empty names. I show how his objections to a particular view involving descriptions derived from Ramsification can be avoided by a nearby alternative framed in terms of discourse reference. I offer a treatment of empty names as variables carrying presuppositions concerning unique occupants of roles, or sets of properties, determined by the originating discourse.

有翼马、无赖和话语所指

本文讨论了卡普兰在《鲍勃和卡罗尔以及特德和爱丽丝》中关于空名的一些评论。我展示了如何通过一个以话语参照为框架的邻近替代方案来避免他对涉及从拉姆齐化衍生出的描述的特定观点的反对。我将空名作为变量来处理，空名携带着关于角色的独特占有者或属性集的预设，而这些角色或属性集是由起源话语决定的。
