Tenses are traditionally presented as part of a stable temporo aspecto-modal
system where each fulfills specific and differentiated functions. "Eppur si
muove": discursive practice shows a less constraint state of affairs and reveals
a 'dynamic synchrony'.

The aims of the colloquium will be to describe and to analyse the places where
change is currently happening, and where discursive practices are likely to make
the verbal system evolve, as well as to evaluate the factors provoking changes.
In addition, it is hoped that the meeting will be the starting point of an
international reflection network on the issues covered.

Les formes verbales d'une langue sont traditionnellement présentées comme
éléments d'un système aspecto-temporo-modal stable où chaque tiroir remplit des
fonctions spécifiques et discriminantes. Eppur si muove...: les pratiques
discursives révèlent une réalité plus fluide et une synchronie dynamique. Le but
du présent colloque est de décrire et d'analyser les changements actuellement en
cours, et les lieux où les pratiques discursives actuelles s'avèrent
susceptibles de faire évoluer les systèmes verbaux des langues romanes, ainsi
que d'évaluer les facteurs déclencheurs du changement. 

Les organisateurs espèrent que la rencontre sera le point de départ pour un
réseau international de recherche sur les sujets abordés.
