Abstract:

The volume presents a typology of interaction of verbal categories, including
the question of (in)compatibility of individual categories or their values
(‘grammemes’), as well as the question of meaning shifts of individual verbal
grammemes occurring in particular combinations. 

The volume also raises, more tentatively, the question of the Universal
Hierarchy of verbal categories and its role in constraining combinations of
individual grammemes.
 
Apart from a typological overview and a questionnaire designed by the editors,
the volume includes 18 contributions dealing with interaction of verbal
categories in individual languages (Ancient Greek, Arabic, Armenian, Basque,
Chinese, Chukchi, French, Gban, Even, Khmer, Lithuanian, Nanai, Old Javanese,
Ossetic, Paraguayan Guarani, Russian, Tagalog, Tundra and Forest Enets),
written by leading experts, which serve as a pilot database for the proposed
typological generalizations.
