Semantic of poetical tropes: Non-Fregeanity and paraconsistent logic
P. 177-191.
The proposed theory of poetical tropes is an extension of the Hintikka‒Sandu theory of meaning lines with the addition of paraconsistent logic. It is the paraconsistent element that is responsible for the key feature of poetical trope that Davidson called “insight”. It was argued that the semantics of poetical tropes is situational and, therefore, non-Fregean, and this feature is already implied in the Hintikka-Sandu theory, although Hintikka and Sandu consider their theoretical framework as Fregean.
