In this article, we continue to address the mechanisms of presenting oneself as another and another as oneself. In this regard, non-trivial features of the semantics of a proper name are described. ...Based on the analysis of contexts of inappropriate use of a name in a situation of imposture, described in Pushkin's tragedy Boris Godunov, the author considers semiotic mechanisms of transformation and assignment of identity. The article shows that Pushkin's intuition allowed him to see the problems that arose in the analytical philosophy of the name of the second half of the 20th century. Pushkin consistently creates contexts in which the conditions of acceptability or unacceptability of deviating uses are tested. On the one hand, these features allow the author to offer an additional, logical and semantic dimension for the interpretation of the tragedy Boris Godunov. On the other hand, they significantly clarify the existing theories of the proper name, showing their possible non-trivial, and in some cases, problematic consequences. Simultaneously, the logical-semantic analysis makes it possible to identify the mechanisms of imposture and the communicative conditions for its success.
En este trabajo, se presentan los gráficos existenciales para el cálculo proposicional paraconsistente, KT4P. Este sistema deductivo, es un fragmento de la lógica proposicional modal S4, y se ...construye a partir del cálculo proposicional clásico positivo, junto con un operador de negación débil. El sistema KT4P, se encuentra caracterizado por una semántica de mundos posibles, además, KT4P es paraconsistente, es decir, no colapsa en la presencia de contradicciones. Los gráficos existenciales para este sistema paraconsistente, se presentan en el estilo de los gráficos alfa de Charles Sanders Peirce, junto con reglas para bucles y rizos similares a las presentadas recientemente por Arnold Oostra, para los gráficos existenciales intuicionistas. Todas las pruebas, son presentadas de manera completa, rigurosa y detallada.
In this article, I explore the content-related and formal aspects of describing the multidimensional semantic organization of a text, particularly, I focus on the possibility of using the apparatus ...of modal semantics to identify the relationship between sentential complexes. To those ends, I employ the concepts of model, model structure, and centred world. The latter is a system of functions that correlate language expressions, the language expressions of a text, states of affairs (possible worlds) described by language expressions, and the contexts in which a text occurs. Existence in the worlds of the text correlates with the possibility of description. Presumably, the text is a twofold notion: it refers to a linear sequence of segments and a multidimensional semantic structure. In this work, I demonstrate the possibilities of integrating both approaches. I consider the correlation between the mechanisms of text coherence, on the one hand, and the relationships of transworld accessibility and of the identification of described individuals across possible worlds, on the other. Probably, the variety of cohesion mechanisms does not make it possible to use a single identification mechanism and requires taking into account various competing approaches. I illustrate the above conclusions, using Pushkin’s draft ‘If I were Tsar…’
There are two important facts that prevent the success of the so called "ontological argument": 1) the use of the concept of existence as a real predicate and 2) the confusion of de re and de dicto ...modalities. The article considers a way to overcome the former problem proposed by the Czech logician Pavel Tichý.
