On Sense and Reference
Frege, Gottlob (1892)
- Nominator's statement
- This should have been in the top 100 (compared to others that actually made it).
comments
- Pre-20th century but almost single-handedly responsible for the course of philosophy of language ever since. For better or for worse, the formal study of language -- and mind -- ever since can be fittingly described as "footnotes to Frege".
