The analysis of mixed quotation proposed in Cappelen & Lepore (1997a), purportedly as a development of Davidson’s accounts of direct and of indirect quotation, is critically examined. It is argued that the analysis fails to specify either necessary or sufficient conditions on mixed quotation, and that the way it has been defended by its proponents makes its alleged Davidsonian parentage questionable.
