COURSE DESCRIPTION

This seminar will be concerned with the semantics of tense. The main question is how morphological tense is interpreted in matrix and embedded clauses of different types, paying close attention to sequence of tense phenomena (consecutio temporum) and the interaction between temporal binding and scope. Further, it will be investigated how the meaning of tense combines compositionally with temporal modifiers and modal elements.
