    The Primacy of Concepts and the Priority of Judgments in Frege's Logic
    Grazer Philosophische Studien 56 (1): 73-90. 1998.

    Context and quantifier domain
    Manuscrito 32 (1): 283-307. 2009.
    There are some salient explanatory models for the semantic phenomenon known as quantifier domain restriction. Each of these models sees the context of utterance as playing a different role. A particularly clear and helpful way of organizing the issue is offered by Stanley and Szabó , who distinguish three kinds of approaches, and argue for one of them in particular .

    Superficially and Deeply Contingent A Priori Truths
    Croatian Journal of Philosophy 16 (2): 247-266. 2016.
    In this paper, I review some standard approaches to the cases of contingent a priori truths that emerge from Kripke’s (1980) discussion of proper names and Kaplan’s (1989) theory of indexicals. In particular, I discuss Evans’ (1979) distinction between superficially and deeply contingent truths. I shall raise doubts about Evans’ strategy in general, and also about the roots and meaningfulness of the distinction.
