Necessity of Linguistic Necess

(Sheikh Omar Young)

Abstract

The debate in American philosophy of language about naming and necessity (Kripke 1972, and Rosenberg 1994) can serve as a basis for a hermeneutic theory of translation. The Interpretive Frame (IF) suggested in the present paper, assumes that the scope of interpretation spreads from necessity to infinity. Linguistic necessity accounts for the relationship between language and reality, and thus gives an anchorage to the IF.
