....we might share (2) Frege s puzzle. The thought that Hesperus is Hesperus seems to express the same proposition as the thought that Hesperus is Phosphorus, but the former is trivial and the latter 1 For background material on the six puzzles, see: 1) Putnam 1975, Burge 1979; 2) Frege 1892; 3) Kripke 1979; 4) Perry 1977; 5) Schiffer 1990; 6) Kripke 1980. 1 is not. How can this difference in cognitive significance be reflected in a theory of semantic content (3) Kripke s puzzle. In France, Pierre is told that Londres est jolie , and he believes it. Later, he arrives in London and thinks it ....

Hj R R ffi c w In figure 2, the left model refutes the Necessity of Identity (x : y) x : y) whereas the model on the right refutes the Necessity of The Semantics of Modal Predicate Logic 11 Distinctness (x 6 : y) x 6 : y) The former also relates to Pierre s Puzzle (Kripke 1979). Think of world v as the actual world and of world w as Pierre s World of Beliefs . Then Pierre s seemingly inconsistent beliefs about the actual city denoted in the real world by constants like London and Londres can be consistently modelled as a de re belief about two distinct (fictional) ....

....a couple of problems related to belief and other epistemic attitude ascriptions that still abound in the literature. What we see is that there are relatively uncomplicated ways of handling them in the identi cation semantics. One of the examples known to many is Kripke s puzzle about belief [Kripke, 1979]. In short, the puzzle in question involves one agent, Pierre, and the purpose is to explain how it is possible that this agent can have a consistent set of beliefs even though these beliefs, taken as separate propositions, form a contradictory set of sentences. In particular, the confused agent ....

....the hybrid character of which as an empirical and a normative theory I tried to describe in Spohn (1993) This will become relevant in sect. 5. 6 The basic linguistic connection is given by the disquotation principle which is concerned with belief de dicto. For an extended discussion see Kripke (1979). 7 Even though plausible and important, this claim does not seem to be sufficiently acknowledged in the literature. 4 take one to the theory of knowledge. If one is finally concerned with non linguistic behavior one has great trouble in identifying beliefs to begin with because beliefs ....

Also, the difference between input and output set represents genuine growth of knowledge about the identity relation.

....about this man s information state we must relate it to the visual scene presented to him while in conversation with Princess Anne and visual scenes presented to him, while perhaps seeing Princess Anne on television. 2. 2 Kripke s Pierre The second puzzle that we shall discuss was introduced by Kripke (1979). Kripke tells something like the following story. Pierre is a Frenchman, born in Paris, who does not speak English. He sees pictures in a travel brochure of a city called in French Londres . He thinks it is beautiful. Later in his life, Pierre moves to England, learns English and lives in a city ....
