CONCLUSIONS; REFERENCES; INDEX OF ABBREVIATIONSThis work presents a procedural account of the so-called 'projection problem' for presupposition. It is assumed that presuppositions embedded in complex sentences are subject to no projection rules or ad-hoc conditions whatever, but are in fact satisfied in appropriate contexts in a completely uniform way. It is demonstrated that the apparent filtering, alteration, or preservation of an embedded presupposition is in every case a logical consequence of a general, independently motivated model of language processing and knowledge representation.Pragmatics & beyond ;2:1.Presupposition (Logic)Presupposition (Logic)410Dinsmore John1949-1614197MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817593403321The inheritance of presupposition3943908UNINA
