BarCampBrighton4: Resource Naming and Necessity

A talk I gave at BarCampBrighton4 in September 2009 drawing parallels between URIs on the Web and Saul Kripke’s causal theory of names as presented in Naming and Necessity (http://icanhaz.com/namingandnecessity). The first half is rather technical and dry, but gets more practical as it goes on.

  1. Saul Kripke - Unrestricted Exportation and Some Morals for the Philosophy of Language

    A pioneer in the field of logic, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy Saul Kripke, has spent 40 years studying the philosophy of language and is regarded by his peers to be one of the world’s greatest living philosophers. His research has led to professorships at Harvard, Princeton and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 2001, the Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded him the Schock Prize in Logic and Philosophy, describing his work as “an enormous leap forward for modal logic.” This spring, CUNY created the Saul Kripke Center – a repository for the professor’s articles and unpublished works - at the Graduate Center. During the opening conference, Professor Kripke discusses his life’s work on Gricean maxims and the relationship between language and thought.
