摘要
罗素的摹状词理论自提出以来,一直具有广泛而深刻的影响。它直接渊源于穆勒和弗雷格的对指称与涵义的关系研究;罗素从解决"存在"等哲学问题的目的出发,将摹状词在命题中化解为具有精确涵义的命题函项,并以之为武器为他的哲学服务。尽管受到一些批评,但是,摹状词理论的思考方向和哲学意义是值得充分肯定的。
The Theory of Description has had extensive and profound influence since it was first proposed by Russell. The direct source of this theory originated from the research made by J. S. Mill and G. Frege about the relation between reference and meaning. For the purpose of resolving philosophic problems like 'existence', Russell defined the word 'description' as propositional function with accurate meaning and used it as a weapon to serve his philosophy. Although encountering some criticism, the guiding and philosophic significance of the theory should be fully affirmed.
