%X Some people have difficulty in developing their logical reasoning  especially in academic writing. This study helps to develop the logical reasoning  of the readers and how they can use it in their utterances because it is about one  kind of implied relation between two propositions called presupposition. This is  surely beneficial for developing their analysis and presenting argumentation  which will be used in their life. This research analyzes presuppositions in play  script Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller. The objectives of this research are to  identify the types of presuppositions founds in Death of a Salesman play script  and to identify the language function of utterances containing the special  presupposition in Death of a Salesman play script. This research used a qualitative  method. The source of data was play script of Arthur Miller’s Death of a  Salesman. This research used the theory of presupposition and language functions  of speech acts to analyze the data. In this study, the writer found 48 data of special  presuppositions. From 48 data, the writer found 4 types of presuppositions. They  are lexical presupposition (22 utterances), counterfactual presupposition (6  utterances), structural presupposition (18 utterances) and factive presupposition (2  utterances). The writer also found 2 language functions in the use of the  presuppositions. They are representatives and directives. The lexical  presuppositions show both functions of representatives and directives. The  counterfactual presuppositions show representatives functions. The structural  presuppositions show both functions of representatives and directives. The factive  presuppositions show representative functions.
