Some Problems of Glavaničová’s Approach to Fictional Names

Summary/Abstract: In a recent issue of this journal, Daniela Glavaničová presented her theory of fictional names (see Glavaničová 2017, 396-402). As a part of the project within the field of philosophical analysis of fictional discourse (see at least Haraldsen 2017, Vacek 2017, Zouhar 2017 and Zvolenszky 2015), Glavaničová provided an analysis of fictional names based on the idea of fictional names modelled by necessarily empty individual roles. I limit my discussion of the proposal to the system of Transparent Intensional Logic (henceforth TIL),2 since Glavaničová states: “The paper examines two possible analyses of fictional names within Pavel Tichý’s Transparent Intensional Logic” (Glavaničová 2017, 384). Before that, though, I will sketch her proposal first.
