Paradoxes of Denotation and Reference
Original language description
Paradoxes of denotation and reference receive an increasing attention. Since the paradox-producing expressions involve semantic terms and all semantic concepts are language-relative, their critical theory is needed. Then, a solution to the paradoxes is at hand. One refutes the hidden premise that the paradox-producing term expresses a concept-meaning yielding the problematic denotatum/referent. Utilizing Tichý's logical framework for explication, the meanings of expressions are explicated as (abstract,structured) constructions which construct denotata (intensions/extensions); the referent of an expression (with respect to a possible world and time) is the value of the intension (or it is identical with its denotatum). Tichý's type theory classifies functions, constructions and functions from or to constructions. Though the framework is basically classical, it treats also partial functions.
