This book provides substantial new results in a novel field of
research examining the syntactic and semantic consequences of event
structure. The studies of this volume examine the hypothesis that
event structure correlates with word order, the presence or absence
of the verbal particle, the ]/- specific] feature of the internal
argument, aspect, focusing, negation, and negative quantification,
among others. The results reported concern the telicising vs.
perfectivizing role of the verbal particle; the syntactic and
semantic differences of verbs denoting a delimited change, and
those denoting creation or coming into being; evidence of viewpoint
aspect in a language with no morphological viewpoint marking; the
aspectual role of non-thematic objects; the source of the
exhaustive identification' function of structural focus; the
interaction of negation and aspect etc.
