| summary | A number of theories of representation appeal to de jure coreference as part of a theory of Frege-cases. In this talk, my first aim is to distinguish different ways in which the notion is deployed, corresponding roughly to how it interacts with compositional semantic explanation. With that distinction in view, I argue that Semantic Relationism (which posits relationally-individuated propositions as the semantic upshot of de jure coreference) has no advantages over Formal Relationism (which does not posit propositions of that kind). |
