作者:夏年喜
摘要/Abstract
巴尔?希勒尔是第一个对索引词理论做系统研究的学者,他的索引词理论的逻辑起点是对语用指称和语义指称的区分。本文在给出"语用指称"和"语义指称"这两个基本概念的基础上,着重论述了他的"索引句是不可消除的"这一论点,并较为详尽地分析了希勒尔的理论与斯特劳森在《论指称》中相关理论的异同,还对希勒尔的理论做了适当的评价。
Bar-Hillel, the first scholar who studied index theory systematically, established his Index Theory logically upon the distinction between "semantic reference "and "pragmatic reference". By illustrating the basic concepts of "semantic reference "and "pragmatic reference" first, this paper focuses on addressing to his argumentation "index sentence is not eliminable", and rather elaborately analyzes the similarities and differences between Hillel's Theory and Strawson's related theory in On Referring. An adequate evaluation of Hillel's theory is also conducted in this paper.
