Chalmers and Semantics.
David Chalmers' two‐dimensionalism is an ambitious philosophical program that aims to ground or construct Fregean meanings and restore "the golden triangle" of apriority, necessity, and meaning that Kripke seemingly broke.

There are some gaps in the overall arguments, and the reasoning is in some places somewhat circular. Chalmers' theory is effectively founded on certain strong philosophical assumptions. It is concluded that it is unclear whether the theory can deliver all it promises. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Theoria: A Swedish Journal of Philosophy is the property of Wiley-Blackwell and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
