| Abstract |
Argues that the first person pronoun is always directly referential, against more recent findings of Heim (1991, 2008), Kratzer (1998, 2008) and others. Shows how purported evidence of syntactically bound or `fake' indexical I, involving sloppy ellipsis and only, and de se attitude reporting can be reconciled with a strict Kaplanian seman- tics. Proposes alternative treatments of these phenomena that bypass the syntactic LF level, going straight from surface to semantics/pragmatics.
