More about the book
The paper explores the evolution of the grammatical category of aspect in the English language, beginning with a clear definition and the concept of phylogenesis. It distinguishes aspect from tense, highlighting that aspect focuses on the internal temporal structure of situations rather than their relation to specific time points. Through a historical lens, the study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of how the understanding and usage of aspect have transformed over time, drawing on theories such as those proposed by Comrie.
