Boolos

Confronted with this ambiguity, Boolos (1995) introduced a notation for quotation in which every quotation mark ˜knows its name™.

In connection with such sentences, Boolos plausibly remarks that it would appear hopeless to try to say anything more about the meaning of a sentence of the form ˜The Ks

The pluralistic version of the object-thesis is semantically richer, and by the same token ontologically more economical, than its monistic version, and the work of Russell and Boolos suggests that it is also the more plausible account.

Recently, Boolos (1986, 1993) developed one of the more interesting suggestions for revising Basic Law V without abandoning second-order logic and its comprehension principle for concepts.

The preference for first-order regimentations has come to seem unwarranted, or at least highly tendentious; see Boolos (1998).

Logical Form Pietroski, Paul 2009

Others, such as Lewis's (1991), resort to the machinery of plural quantification of Boolos (1984).

Even more modest is Boolos's sub-logicism, which rejects the idea (endorsed by both logicists and neo-logicists) that there are logical objects, but insists that Frege's definition of the ancestral of a relation can be used to show, as against Kant, that at least some non-trivial mathematics is analytic (Boolos 1985b).

This is, of course, not implausible in the case of logic and arithmetic, and is entirely compatible with, e.g., Boolos 'reasonable doubts about them (after all, it's always possible to doubt what is in fact a necessary truth).

The Analytic/Synthetic Distinction Rey, Georges 2008

What Boolos is suggesting here is that analyses which deny Ontological Innocence are likely to get the subject of plural predications wrong.
