- Title
Roads to anti-descriptivism (about reference fixing): replies to Soames, Raatikainen, and Devitt.
- Authors
Gómez-Torrente, Mario
- Abstract
I reply to comments and criticism of my book Roads to Reference by Scott Soames (on the referents of ordinary substance terms and the conventions governing reference fixing for demonstratives, proper names, and color adjectives), Panu Raatikainen (on the exact scope of my critique of descriptivism and on the relation between referential indeterminacy and "partial reference"), and Michael Devitt (on the role of referential intentions and anti-descriptivism in the metasemantics of demonstratives).
