| Abstract: | In this paper I defend, against Eric Scerri’s objections, the following theses: (i) that Lavoisier and Mendeleev shared a ‘core conception’ of chemical element, and (ii) that this core conception underwrites referential continuity in the names of particular elements. |
| Keywords: | Antoine Lavoisier Dmitri Mendeleev Chemical elements Substance Natural kinds Reference |
