Abstract: The idea that partial truth is just truth of a part cannot be defended unless a theory of propositional parthood is put forward. Since it is known that truth-conditional implication cannot play that role, subject-matters have been used to fuel a two-component theory of propositional parthood. Can this yield a satisfactory theory of partial truth? We show that such an ambition conflicts with natural logical constraints for partial truth.
