Abstract
Model-theoretical (semantical) treatments of modal logic have enjoyed spec-tacular success ever since the pioneering work by Stig Kanger in 1957.1 Quine and others have admittedly proffered sundry philosophical objections to modal logic and its semantics but they have not impeded the overwhelming progress either of the semantical theory of intensional (modal) logics or of its applications.
