Keywords: description theory; Russell; paradox; mixed modal systems
Summary/Abstract: Introduction pays homage to the English philosopher and logician Bertrand Russell, for his creative work in the foundations of Mathematics, his style and literary gift, for his attitude in defense of human dignity and rights. Section 2 presents the language of the mixed modal systems. Section 3 is devoted to an accessible and friendly summary of the paradox of the definite descriptions. Chapter 4 explores the main types of equality atoms where terms and descriptions denote individual objects. Chapter 6 deals with “King George’s problem”. A solution to this problem, which avoids at the same time the paradox of the definite descriptions, can be found by using the language of the mixed modal systems. The chosen language must involve at least modal teleological operators, dynamic, epistemic and executive ones
