19. Language / B. Reference / 4. Descriptive Reference / a. Sense and reference

2519	It is generally accepted that sense is defined as the determiner of reference [Katz]
	Full Idea: There is virtually universal acceptance of Frege's definition of sense as the determiner of reference.
	From: Jerrold J. Katz (Realistic Rationalism [2000], Int.xxvi)
	A reaction: Not any more, since Kripke and Putnam. It is one thing to say sense determines reference, and quite another to say that this is the definition of sense.
