This article is about a hypothesis according to which, in any BE + -ING utterance, the aspectual point of view filters the prototypical properties associated with the notion, temporarily giving the process a stative value; the subject becomes thus the seat of the property expressed by the predicate with -ING. Used with stative processes, BE + -ING induces redundancy, and is therefore chosen by the utterer only when the context requires it.
