Book Description:

This volume contains contributions dealing with the syntax, morphology, semantics and diachronic development of the Perfect and the components it is built on across languages. The text brings these aspects together, working towards a comprehensive theory of the Perfect which takes into consideration the interfaces between the various components of the grammar. Issues addressed include: the temporal versus aspectual character of the Perfect, the contribution of adverbial modification and the structure of the perfect participle.
