Isi artikel

I provide a compositional account of about-PPs in combination with attitude predicates and content nouns, and as a predicate. The account requires that attitude predicates are properties of content-bearing eventualities, rather than relations that take propositions (or other clause denotations) as arguments. I argue further that the relevant notion of ‘content’ must be extremely general, allowing for question-like, proposition-like, and hybrid meanings.
