We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Atemporlaity is mentioned by many linguists, but I am not aware of a
monograph that will treat different sides of this phenomenon in language
and text. I am interested in research and publications on (1) the lack of
one of three types of temporal relation (anteriority, simultaneity,
posteriority) between ET and RT; (2) lack of an explicit ST reference in
context; (3) lack of an explicit RT in context in different languages and
discourse modes, including poetic language. 

Linguistic Field(s): Semantics
