Abstract
DE PONTE, María and KORTA, Kepa. Frege y sus circunstancias: Una interpretación de la teoría fregeana del significado. Anal. filos. [online]. 2023, vol.43, n.1, pp.5-40. Epub May 01, 2023. ISSN 1851-9636. http://dx.doi.org/10.36446/af.2022.949.
We present a novel interpretation of Frege’s theories in Begriffsschrift (1879/2016) and “Über Sinn und Bedeutung” (1892a [2016]). We focus on the role of circumstances as the conceptual content of sentences in Begriffsschrift and we argue that none of the reasons Frege gives in “Über Sinn und Bedeutung” to establish truth-values as the reference of sentences justifies their elimination. This paper is not mainly historical, but rather of conceptual reconstruction. We look for the roots of a pluralist conception of sentence content (Perry, 2001/2012; Korta & Perry, 2011) in Frege.
