Annotation

This paper argues against the logical modeling of the "preservation under negation"-intuition of presuppositions. An alternative truth gap theory is proposed, one that does not refer to negation. This theory models the intuition of preservation under negation non-truth-conditionally in relation to an underlying logic of presupposition.
