Sažetak
In this paper I examine Schiffer’s reply to the substitution failure argument against the view of propositional attitude reports according to which attitude verbs are relations and ‘that’-clauses singular terms. Schiffer relies on the comparison of the substitution failure in attitude reports with the substitution failure in appositions because both result in ill-formed constructions. I discuss some objections to Schiffer and argue that they fail to undermine his reply. I conclude that Schiffer’s argumentation based on the apposition case supports relational approach and weakens the Substitution Problem.
