Isidora Stojanovic and Neftali Villanueva-Fernandez think my approach to attitude ascriptions in Mental Files contradicts my earlier approach, presented in a number of works, including my two books Direct Reference and Oratio Obliqua, Oratio Recta. I argue that it doesn't: the view in Mental Files is nothing but an elaboration of the analysis of attitude ascriptions I presented in my former work.
