Abstract

This book is intended for linguistic specialists, and deals with several problematic issues related to the linguistic structure of the English verb within a semantic framework. It contains five papers written within a research project the aim of which was to describe the central categories of the English verb (viz. tense and aspect) by means of methods and descriptive devices generally used in the field of formal logic. The papers discuss areas of the English temporal system that are notoriously difficult to grasp both for learners of the language and grammarians.
