This essay aims to investigate denotation in normative texts by examining a subset of the noun phrases that appear in normative texts: the denoting phrases. In particular, I will examine the noun phrases that occur in the Charter of fundamental rights of the European Union. In the text of the Charter, I have identified five different types of denoting phrases, which I have distinguished according to the type of entity that the phrases denote: (i) phrases denoting ontic entities, (ii) phrases denoting values, (iii) phrases denoting deontic entities, (iv) phrases denoting institutions, (v) phrases denoting institutional entities.

Abstract
This essay aims to investigate denotation in normative texts by examining a subset of the noun phrases that appear in normative texts: the denoting phrases. In particular, I will examine the noun phrases that occur in the Charter of fundamental rights of the European Union. In the text of the Charter, I have identified five different types of denoting phrases, which I have distinguished according to the type of entity that the phrases denote: (i) phrases denoting ontic entities, (ii) phrases denoting values, (iii) phrases denoting deontic entities, (iv) phrases denoting institutions, (v) phrases denoting institutional entities.
