The aim of this book is two-fold: to offer a retrospective view
on the past thirty years of research on aspectuality and
temporality as well as to develop new perspectives on the future
development of the field. Articles contain overviews of the
development of the field and/or present the state of the art of
current research, suggesting new and upcoming lines of research. An
important theme throughout the book is typological variation, and
the relevance of empirical data for theory formation.
Together the articles in the book take a wide crosslinguistic
scope including aspectual analyses of English, and two varieties of
English: African American English and Colloquial Singapore English,
Italian, French, Bulgarian, Czech, Mandarin Chinese,
West-Greenlandic, Wakashan languages, and Nakh-Daghestanian
languages.
Audience: Scholars and students of aspectuality in semantics and
at the syntax-semantics interface.
