Deliz and Pragmatism - What's the Connection?

Jermaine Duffy: One of Deliz's teachers exposed him to the pragmatists. Did you already have a sort of interest in that side of the pond, if you will? He says he found it useful to read Branden to then try and clarify some stuff that's going on in Deliz. They both cite Frager as a bit of an influence on their treatment of sense. And the way that Frager talks about sense and reference was very influential for Branden.
