Beyond Rigidity: The Unfinished Semantic Agenda of Naming and Necessity


Overview

In this fascinating work, Scott Soames offers a new conception of the relationship between linguistic meaning and assertions made by utterances.

He also demonstrates the irrelevance of rigid designation in understanding why theoretical identities containing such predicates are necessary, if true.
