I’ve posted a PDF containing the entirety of Levinson, Chapter 4 in the “Readings” section.  For next week, read sections 4.0-4.2.

(Remember that the readings are password-protected.  You can find the password on your printed copy of the syllabus.)

The Levinson chapter deals with presupposition, a type of inference distinct from both entailment and implicature.  Next Tuesday, we’ll wrap up our discussion of propositional logic and implicature, and then take an initial look at presupposition.
