Aspect and Reference Time Summary

Aspect and Reference Time by Olga Borik (New University of Russia)

Investigating the temporal structure of language, this text deals with issues in the understanding of tense and aspect, proposes a new approach to the main problems in the area, and seeks to establish the universal semantic properties of two important and contentious aspectual categories, perfectivity and imperfectivity.

Aspect and Reference Time Reviews

extremely lucid and forceful...This book is exceptionally clear and well written...I wish there were more semantic and syntactic texts of this exceptional clarity and reader-friendliness. * Roumyana Slabakova, Folia Linguistica *
