Pain Rorty I 83f
Pain/Descartes: pain are particulars RortyVs). Their being is constituted in a single property: painfulness.

I 93f
Pain/Kripke/Rorty: difference: a) heat: Even in the absence of heat you can feel heat - (same epistemic situation)
b) Not so in the case of pain.
Difference: a) reference in heat is determined by an accidental property - b) in pain: by an essential property.
>Pain/Kripke, cf. >Necessity a posteriori.
I 127 f
E.g. The not yet speaking child knows in the same way that it is in pain, as the plant knows the direction of the sun and the amoeba the temperature of the water. Knowledge: this way of knowledge, however, is unrelated to what a user of language knows, if he knows what pain is.
Wittgenstein: it is a mistake to think that we learn what pain is in this second sense in putting our knowledge, of what pain in the first sense is, in a linguistic construct.
>Linguistic disguise.
I 128
Wittgensteinians: make a fuss about the facts about behavior and environment. RortyVs: these are irrelevant to the nature of pain. Because the nature of pain is simply determined by what is named.

Rorty: Pain, people and beliefs (I'm not so sure with hairstyles) are not entities, about which one can learn to talk by obtaining succinct definitions. >Definition.

Synonymy Geach 169/70
Synonymy/Criteria/propositional identity/Geach: we know that strict reciprocal implication is not a sufficient criterion for synonymy. E.g. "Necessarily either both, p and q, or neither p nor q" usually does not suffice: that does not justify the conclusion: Everyone believes that p if and only if he believes that q".
((s) because of lack of identity criteria for intensional objects.)
>Identity criteria, >Intensional objects.
Geach: entailment as a substitute for strict implication is complicated, but does not help.
>Entailment/Geach.
Transitivity must be abolished - even from reciprocal entailment, the identity of propositions does not follow.
>Transitivity.
Geach: no one knows what he says when he says that two propositions are identical.
>Propositions, >Intensions, >Objects of thought.
If the difference between two propositions is not an obstacle, that both are believed at the same time, why should it be an obstacle being expressed simultaneously by one and the same proposition? - Problem: then the whole apparatus of synonymy and non-ambiguity threatens to collapse. On the other hand, if we cannot recognize the same meaning (sense) in different linguistic disguises, there is also little purpose in postulating propositions.
