Brill Cross-Linguistic Perspectives on the Semantics of Grammatical Aspect: 30 (Cahiers Chronos, 30)

The volume proposes original semantic analyses on grammatical aspect, dealing with some less studied forms coding aspect, revisiting or challenging certain conventionalized views on aspectual categories and shedding light on interactions between aspect and modality, another multifaceted semantic category.
