Singular Reference: A Descriptivist Perspective
By:Francesco Orilia
Published on 2009-12-01 by Springer Science & Business Media
Singular reference is the relation that a singular term has to a corresponding individual. For example, |Obama| singularly refer to the current US president. Descriptivism holds that all singular terms refer by means of a concept associated to the term. The current trend is against this. This book explains in detail (mainly for newcomers) why anti-descriptivism became dominant in spite of its weaknesses and (for experts) how these weaknesses can be overcome by appropriately reviving descriptivism.
