Frege : Sense and Reference One Hundred Years Later

Gottlob Frege's brief article "Uber Sinn und Bedeutung" ("On Sense and Reference") has come to be seen, in the century since its publication in 1892, as one of the seminal texts of analytic philosophy.

It, along with the rest of Frege's writings on logic and mathematics, came to mark out a whole new domain of inquiry and to set the agenda for it.

This volume bears witness to the continuing importance and influence of that agenda.

It contains original papers written by leading Frege scholars for the conference held in 1992 in Karlovy Vary to celebrate the centenary of the publication of Frege's essay.

The 14 essays show how the questions Frege discusses in that essay connect intimately with issues much debated in current philosophy of language and philosophy of mind.
