Frege’s detour: an essay on meaning, reference, and truth
John Perry
John Perry offers a rethinking of Gottlob Frege's seminal contributions
to philosophy of language. Frege's innovations provided the basis of
modern logic, but his influence in other areas should not be
understated. For instance, the view that he developed in "On Sense and
Reference", the most studied essay in the philosophy of language,
dominated twentieth-century work in the field and continues to be very
influential. Perry explains and charts the development of Frege's views
in this area, and argues that his doctrine of indirect reference
directed philosophy of language on a long detour from which only now can
we emerge. Perry advocates a move away from indirect reference and
presents an alternative framework which does not require the abandoning
of circumstances in the references of sentences.
