Special workshop: Time and Space in Romanian
Antwerp September 23-25, 2004
The Research unit on Comparative Romance Linguistics of the Antwerp
university is organizing an international meeting on the above
mentioned topic with
Keynote speakers:
Ileana Comorovski

Thanks to the financial support of the Flemish Community (BIL
scientific cooperation project 01/33), we have been able to invite
some Romanian outstanding linguists working on the expression of Time
and Space in Romania and abroad:
Larisa Avram
Alexandra Cornilescu

Maria Iliescu
Maria M. Manoliu
Sanda Reinheimer
Andra Vasilescu
Background: Since Reichenbach's (1947) influential study on the
linguistic encoding of temporal relations, much attention has been
paid to the way in which tense is expressed in natural languages. This
has resulted in studies investigating temporal relations, mainly
concerned with comparative aspects of tenses, such as the opposition
between perfective and imperfective tenses. More recently, efforts
have been made to address temporal relations not only with regard to
their interpretative aspect, but also with respect to their syntactic
encodings.
In addition, current research aims at studying the more fundamental
connection between nouns and verbs, in particular with respect to the
expression of time and space: the way in which the interpretation of
tense is determined by the morphological expression of quantification
on the subject, cross-linguistic variation w.r.t. the interaction
between nominal and temporal quantification, etc.
General Topics:
The relationship between Tense, Mode and Aspect. One or several
distinct notions? Syntax, semantics and pragmatics of Concordantia
temporum. Comparison between languages. Historical raising of the
forms. Evolution in the uses. Parallels between the expression of
time and the expression of space. The interaction between verbal and
nominal quantification Conference languages are English and French.
