Here is a unique work of reference. Not only does it unite studies which explore the syntax and semantics of tense or modality, but it is the first book of its kind to embrace the interaction of tense and modality within a coherent generative model.

This volume gathers twelve papers exploring how medieval thinkers conceptualized time, examined the linguistic expression of temporality, and addressed the impact of time’s passage on the scope of possibility and necessity. Drawing on the XXIII European Symposium on Medieval Logic and Semantics, these essays also venture into natural philosophy, metaphysics, and theology, uncovering fresh arguments and revisiting pivotal debates from Avicenna through the fourteenth century. Contributors are Fabrizio Amerini, Allan Bäck, Magdalena Bieniak, Jon Bornholdt, Enrico Donato, Davide Falessi, Heine Hansen, Elżbieta Jung, Martyna Koszkało, John Marenbon, Costantino Marmo, Stephen Read, Paul Thom, Luisa Valente, and Wojciech Wciórka.

After an introductory chapter that provides an overview to theoretical issues in tense, aspect, modality and evidentiality, this volume presents a variety of original contributions that are firmly empirically-grounded based on elicited or corpus data, while adopting different theoretical frameworks. Thus, some chapters rely on large diachronic corpora and provide new qualitative insight on the evolution of TAM systems through quantitative methods, while others carry out a collostructional analysis of past-tensed verbs using inferential statistics to explore the lexical grammar of verbs. A common goal is to uncover semantic regularities and variation in the TAM systems of the languages under study by taking a close look at context. Such a fine-grained approach contributes to our understanding of the TAM systems from a typological perspective. The focus on well-known Indo-European languages (e.g. French, German, English, Spanish) and also on less commonly studied languages (e.g. Hungarian, Estonian, Avar, Andi, Tagalog) provides a valuable cross-linguistic perspective.

Planning is defined as formulating an organized method for action in advance. Although people do not plan all the time and planning does not occur in every situation, planning skill is central to all human behavior. There are developmental differences in planning skill and in the motivation to plan. Even among adults, variations in the engagement in the planning process are affected by individual attitudes, beliefs, and goals. Planning also has a different meaning at various junctures in one's life. Yet despite the amount of research on planning, many of the studies have focused only on the cognitive processes that enable mature individuals to plan. A continued exploration of the developmental course of planning, this text attempts to situate cognitive aspects of planning in the context of the social and cultural environment and other psychological processes. Bringing together the contributions of developmental, organizational, and social psychologists, it explains how, when, and why we plan. Finally, it addresses various issues that pertain to the different aspects of planning, from formal problem solving to handling the demands of everyday life.

This thesis is about branching time. In the opening chapter I discuss philosophical ideas in the philosophy of time and modality, and motivate branching time. In the second chapter I outline the basics of temporal and modal logic and model theory. In chapter three I examine various ways of construing the future tense in branching time. In chapter four I examine closely 'Ockhamist' semantics, and suggest a modification to the theory of the Thin Red Line, making a position referred to as 'STRL'. In chapter five I outline how a theory of counterfactuals can be made compatible with STRL logic. In chapter 6 I discuss branching time's relation to relativity theory. In chapter 7 I end with a discussion of the metaphysics of Belnap and the metaphysics of STRL.

This book explores the cognitive constraints and principles of variation in structures of linguistic meaning across languages. It unifies cognitive-semantic representations with formal-semantic representations to make a unique contribution to the study of typological generalizations and universals in natural language semantics. This unified approach not only helps reveal why semantic structures have the observed variation they have but also sheds light on the compelling cognitive and formal regularities and patterns in the variation of linguistic semantics. The book also advances the general principles of a cognitively oriented semantic typology. Lucid and topical, the book will be an indispensable resource for students and researchers of language typology, linguistics, cognitive linguistics and semantics. It will also be of interest to theoretical linguists of both cognitivist and formalist schools.
