Post-Fregean thoughts on propositional unity
Original language description
The current revival of the notion of structured meaning has made the problem of propositional unity pressing. The problem, stated in its simplest form, is how an individual a and a property F combine into the proposition P that a is an F. In general terms, how do two different kinds of objects combine into a third kind of object capable of having properties that neither of its constituents could have? Standard constraints imposed on P include that P must be capable of being true/false, being known/believed to be true/false, occurring as argument of propositional connectives (such as entailment), and figuring as the meaning of a sentence. This essay sketches how a theory of procedural semantics may offer a solution to the problem of the unity of the proposition. Procedural semantics contrasts with denotational semantics. Procedural semantics identifies meaning with the very procedure for producing a product, while denotational semantics identifies meaning with the product. The solution,
