His most celebrated work, Naming and Necessity, makes arguably the most important contribution to the philosophy of language and metaphysics in recent years. Asking fundamental questions - how do names refer to things in the world? Do objects have essential properties? What are natural kind terms and to what do they refer? - he challenges prevailing theories of language and conceptions of metaphysics, especially the descriptivist account of reference, which Kripke argues is found in Frege, Wittgenstein an 410 0$aRoutledge philosophy guidebooks. 517 3 $aGuidebook to Kripke and Naming and necessity 517 3 $aKripke and Naming and necessity 606 $aNecessity (Philosophy) 606 $aReference (Philosophy) 606 $aIdentity (Philosophical concept) 615 0$aNecessity (Philosophy) 615 0$aReference (Philosophy) 615 0$aIdentity (Philosophical concept) 676 $a121/.68 700 $aNoonan$b Harold W.$0615908 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962309203321 996 $aRoutledge philosophy guidebook to Kripke and Naming and necessity$94407099 997 $aUNINA
