These semantics come with ontological and metaphysical implications regarding the references of singular terms --- such as the necessity of Hesperus being Phosphorus. My primary question in this talk is how these metaphysical facts can be a posteriori facts, as opposed to a matter of logic, of the sort that a cognizer can come to know. The goal of this talk is to give a semantics that sheds new light on this aposteriority. I will take an approach in terms of intensional logic that treats all singular terms, predicates, and quantifiers as uniformly intensional. Combined with epistemic logic, my approach will provide a semantics and logic in which metaphysical principles regarding cross-world reference are substantial facts that a cognizer can both learn and use in their modal reasoning and theorizing.
