I think I did invite my ole friend Randy to contribute here.
He was once _so_ excited by my coinings that I came to love him (This is all publicly on record).
Basically, Helzerman was trying to refute a Latino in Berkeley. I forget his name, Basque name. He had written a thing on the Liar Paradox.
Helzerman did not like that.
So I said,
"Surely you are avoiding Halliday's autophoria"
For Halliday, there's
ana-phoric
(e.g. The king is dead. Long live the king) (??)
But there's also
cata-phoric
and
exo-phoric
and
endo-phoric
But the liar is _autophoric_.
This, and my haecceity, which Helzerman thought I had coined, but it's a duns-scottism, Helzerman was _over the edge_.

Oops.
ReplyDeleteObGrice: I forgot this was to comment on Chapman citing Grice on 'reflective' (Chapman, p. 132, citing Grice 2001).
-- such an _uglier_ term, reflective, when autophoric does perfectly.
"For Grice, the
Op3-sub alpha
is subdivided into A, reflective and B, imperative cases."
