Reseña del editor
Tense and Narrativity is an investigation into the linguistic foundation of narrative discourse, the goal of which is to arrive at an understanding of certain linguistic strategies used by story-tellers to structure experience, real or invented. The focus is on the functions of the grammatical categories of tense and aspect, and on the strategic ways in which these categories operate in narrative. A further goal is a re-assessment of a long-standing problem of Romance philology: the seemingly idiosyncratic use of tenses found in much of the narrative literature of the Middle Ages: the problem of why medieval writers 'couldn't get their tenses straight'. The progress towards these two goals provides a springboard for exploring a number of broader theoretical questions: about the differences between spoken and written language, the relationship of pragmatics to grammar, narrative typology, and the status of narrative as a special category of linguistic performance.
