I review Ninan’s Hundred Tickets case pertaining to quantification into epistemic modal contexts, and his counterpart theoretic way to address it (Ninan, Philos Rev, 2018. https://doi.org/10.1215/00318108-6973010). Ninan’s solution employs a ‘counterpart relation’ parameter intended to reflect how the domain of quantification is thought of in a context. This approach theoretically rules out the possibility of contexts where different ways of thinking about the domain can be deployed through different quantificational noun phrases. I bring out the case of the multiply de re modal statement Any ticket in photo #2 might be any ticket in photo #1 to challenge Ninan’s approach. I propose a different approach adapting a more complex ‘counterpart relation’ parameter due to Rabern (Inquiry, 2021. https://doi.org/10.1080/0020174X.2018.1470568). I attempt to flesh it out by relating it to a finer grained notion of epistemic possibility involving assignments to discourse referents. My approach can account for the aforementioned multiply de re statement, as well as address the Hundred Tickets case.

表示多重认知模态陈述

我回顾了尼南关于量化认知模态背景的百票案例,以及他对应的解决该问题的理论方法(尼南,Philos Rev,2018。https://doi.org/10.1215/00318108-6973010)。尼南的解决方案采用了“对应关系”参数,旨在反映在上下文中如何看待量化领域。这种方法从理论上排除了可以通过不同的量化名词短语部署不同的领域思考方式的上下文的可能性。我提出了multiply de re modal statements的情况,照片#2 中的任何一张票都可能是照片#1 中的任何一张票,以挑战尼南的方法。由于 Rabern(Inquiry,2021。https://doi.org/10.1080/0020174X.2018.1470568),我提出了一种不同的方法,采用更复杂的“对应关系”参数。我试图通过将其与涉及话语所指指派的认知可能性的更细粒度的概念联系起来来充实它。我的方法可以解释前面提到的multiple de re语句,也可以解决百票案例。
