This work claims to resolve a paradox from Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations by analyzing the statement “Stick S is one meter long at t.” This book distinguishes between building a table out of ice from the Thames River and discovering that an existing table is actually made of ice. The third section of this work argues that gold could appear non-yellow, through an optical illusion, but must have atomic number 79. This book proposes a model in which an initial (*) “baptism” leads to a “causal chain.” Consisting of three lectures delivered at Princeton in 1970, this work rejects the Russell-Frege theory and tragically proposes that “Richard Nixon” refers to the same person in all possible worlds. For 10 points, the claim that proper names are “rigid designators” is found in what series of lectures by Saul Kripke? ■END■
