Abstract:

This study offers a reconceptualization of the factive presupposition. It
presents a cognitive-functional account based on three central features: the
event structure of semantic classes of matrix predicates, the sources of modal
stances in the complement clause, and the coercive potential of
predicate-complement combinations. In this way the study complements the
dominant formal pragmatic and formal syntactic theories on factivity.
