Kripke argued (along with many others) that the Russellian view fails to account for the significance of the fact that different descriptions may be (and are) used in place of a name to designate an object. So one person might designate Aristotle as 'the teacher of Alexander the Great', another as 'the most famous student of Plato', another as 'the author of the Metaphysics' and so on. (Even a single speaker might use various descriptions at different times to designate Aristotle.) Clearly, the notion of proper names as disguised or shorthand definite descriptions is faulty, for if the name 'Aristotle' means 'the teacher of Alexander the Great' then the statement 'Aristotle was the teacher of Alexander the Great' would be a tautology something it surely is not. So, said Kripke, being the teacher of Alexander the Great cannot be part of (the sense of) the name 'Aristotle'.","PeriodicalId":217191,"journal":{"name":"A Wittgenstein Symposium (Girona, 1989)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124355533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A superficially adequate command of the language of communication cannot substitute for familiarity with cultural deep-structures. Although this chapter’s remit is to investigate communication problems between such national (cultural) groups as Americans and Japanese, the Other can also be someone of a different generation, gender, social class or ethnic group. His findings therefore have massive relevance for dealings with the intra-cultural, too (especially in a nation that is as diverse as India)―dealings that are made more complicated by prejudice and discursive falsification.","PeriodicalId":217191,"journal":{"name":"A Wittgenstein Symposium (Girona, 1989)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129839400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
