This volume investigates the precise contours of the connections
between two foundational concepts: reference (the means of
semantically expressing singular or object-dependent information)
and structure (the having or lacking of meaningful sub-parts).
Sullivan shows that the notion of structure, properly excavated,
underlies and grounds various important points in the theory of
reference. As such, this work builds on and further develops work
by Bertrand Russell, Saul Kripke, David Kaplan, and Stephen Neale -
principally, among many others. Sullivan aims to clearly establish
the intrinsic connections between structure and reference, which
brings into focus informative and explanatory connections
underlying otherwise disparate debates about various aspects of
linguistic communication. The overall result is a simple,
comprehensive lens that can help to clarify a wide range of
semantic phenomena.
