摘要：
In this paper, we suggest a strategy for modelling cognitive context within a truth-conditional semantics, using Asher's model of predication. This allows us to introduce the notion of type presupposition intended as a lexical constraint to the composition of the truth-conditional content. More specifically, we suggest that this model of predication produces a notion of truth-conditional meaning where the cognitive context fixes a set of lexical restrictions and forced modifications. We conclude that this model might offer an intermediate position between Minimalism and Contextualism: an account that provides intuitive truth conditions within a formal semantic theory.
