Description

Explore the complexities of temporal meaning in the German language with this specialized academic text from Routledge. Originally published in 1985, this work provides a deep analysis of how time is expressed through model-theoretic semantics. By utilizing a multi-dimensional tense logic, the book offers a unique perspective on how natural language temporalia function. The text is structured to guide readers through both theoretical foundations and practical applications. It begins by arguing why a three-dimensional logic is the most effective way to describe temporal structures. Following this theoretical groundwork, the book applies these concepts directly to German, examining essential linguistic elements such as the Present and Past Tenses, duratives, and frame adverbials. This volume is part of the Routledge Library Editions: Semantics and Semiology, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers in linguistics. It covers specific linguistic components including aspectual adverbials using 'in' and the adverbial particle 'schon', while also providing a formal syntax to support the semantic analysis. This book serves as a comprehensive study for those interested in the intersection of logic, syntax, and German linguistics.
