摘要
In his 2022 article 'A puzzle about the fixity of the past', Lampert argues that standard views concerning knowledge and the semantics of 'actually' conflict with a widely held principle concerning the fixity of the past. I show that his attempt to establish the conflict fails, as it rests on the implicit assumption that a past mental state or utterance involving a modal indexical must have the same content across worlds with a shared past, when in fact it must, given its character, differ in content.
