The compositional nature of tense, mood and aspect /
Verkuyl, H. J.,author.
"This book is written for linguists doing research in the domain of interaction between semantics, syntax and morphology focussed on tense, mood and aspect. The term linguists may include computational linguists, psycholinguists, SLA-linguists and even logicians focussed on the question of how their formal tools can be used for dealing with natural language. In a different use, the term linguists captures a variety of scholars from different persuasions such as categorial grammarians, minimalists, generativists in a broader sense, functional grammarians, cognitive grammarians, among many others. It also captures linguists working in the tradition of Discourse Representation Theory. For them the central notion of e(vent(uality)) is a primitive one, whereas in the present book the notion will be broken apart into different pieces of atemporal information that serve on different layers of phrase structure rendering a temporal 4 ultimately at the level of a tensed sentence"--
