| Nov 22 at 8:19 | comment | added | Double Knot | @PaulRoss either works so long as sense is entirely different from subjective and psychological idea, one person even with a single correct idea could have two different senses simultaneously and vice versa, one sense of "morning star" could certainly evoke two different ideas in two persons simultaneously, say, an astronomer and a child... | |
| Nov 22 at 8:03 | comment | added | Paul Ross | @DoubleKnot I don’t think that example quite works, because they are different senses - different presentations of the object - they just have the same reference. I think this idea is more like two different people thinking about the Morning Star - does one man associate that with Lucifer? That doesn’t mean they aren’t the same mode of presentation, in some sense like a truth conditional semantics. | |
| Nov 22 at 7:49 | comment | added | Double Knot | The relatively objective sensorial impression of "the morning star" and "the evening star" is not always connected as they seem totally different objects, even in the same man, with the same idea which is nothing but his subjective association evoked with the same reference or image in his mind knowingly and correctly and is personal and may vary from one individual to another or even within the same person over time... | |

Eine logische Untersuchung" (1918): Frege says ideas are private, but thoughts are public. Frege said that such abstract objects were members of a third realm." | |
