Abstract

This paper introduces and defends a high-level generalization about the way that presupposition triggers interact with attitude verbs. This generalization tells us a great deal about what an adequate account of presupposition would have to look like. And it reveals one underappreciated way in which presupposition is philosophically interesting.
