About the name, has been a philosophical or logical point of two opposite, a namethat has the connotation, another is that the name has no meaning. In the modern analyticphilosophy category, Frege and Russell support is the name of the description theory,point to the first, and Kripke makes the historical causal naming theory the theory ofnames is to the latter view, they have been debating from birth, this controversy untiltoday has been20years, since it involves to many important problems about philosophyand logic, makes it very far-reaching impact, its thought is widespread.Study on the key issues of the philosophy of logic field of non specific problem, theearliest, Muller put forward the theory of proper names says, proper names only itsallegations, which itself does not contain any content,, Frege and Russell have alsoestablished their own theory of names, is the continuation and repair of the point of viewof Muller, they agreed that for proper names, which is itself has its own meaning andreference, many years later, this theory. They occupy the supreme dominance in theacademic circle. Kripke put forward his theory of names after them, he opposed thetheory of descriptions, and his name is determined by the historical causal chain, ratherthan meaningful, his name is his return to the strict instructions of this class, it is onlyyour reference only. Agree without prior without previous consultation his viewpoint andMuller theory of proper names. This idea has just come out, has raised the academictempestuous waves, the theory of descriptions to dominate the situation pumpdisintegrate, takes the historical causal naming theory, the theory of descriptions of thestatus of serious does not guarantee, thus the name of Kripke theory as the logic to makecontribution is enormous, and he put forward a new research method, worth learning.This paper mainly is the study of the theory of Russell’s description of Kripke’shistorical causal naming theory, through the analysis and evaluation of the two theory,find two kinds of different theories, for their different summary. Through the reflection ofthese two theories, and the two kinds of theories in the philosophy history contributionand development situation,objective evaluation of the legalization of the two theories. |
