Der Sammelband befaßt sich mit dem Einfluß der lexikalischen Bedeutung auf die Funktionen des Verbalaspekts. Grammatischer Aspekt und aspektsensitive Verbklassen (Aktionsarten), die auf den Grenzeigenschaften bzw. Phasenstrukturen von Sachverhalten beruhen, werden dabei systematisch getrennt. Bei den untersuchten Aspektkategorien liegen Schwerpunkte auf der Opposition "perfektiv : imperfektiv" (einschließlich Aorist, Imperfekt, Prozessiv) und auf dem "Perfekt". Daneben werden "Proximativ" und "Ingressiv" sowie die Frage der Relevanz aspektsensitiver Verbklassen auch für (aktionale) Verbalperiphrasen behandelt. Die Daten stammen aus Sprachen sehr verschiedener Gruppen und Typen. This collection examines the influence of lexical meaning on the functions of verb aspect. A systematic distinction is made between grammatical aspect and aspect-sensitive verb-classes (Aktionsarten) defined in terms of the boundary features or phase structures of what they refer to. Among the aspect categories discussed, emphasis is given to the completive/non-perfective opposition (including aorist, imperfect, progressive) and the 'perfect' form. In addition there is discussion of the 'proximative' and the 'ingressive' and the question of the relevance of aspect-sensitive verb-classes for (actional) verb periphrases. The data are taken from languages of very different groups and types.

Hiroyuki Ura demonstrates that his theory of multiple feature-checking, an extension of Chomsky's AGR-less checking theory, gives a natural explanation for a wide range of data drawn from a variety of languages in a very consistent way.

The issue of permanence and change of word-order patterns has long been debated in both historical linguistics and structural theories. The interest in this theme has been revamped by contemporary research in typology with its emphasis on correlation or 'harmonies' of structures of word-order as explicative principles of both synchronic and diachronic processes. The aim of this book is to stimulate a critical reconsideration of perspectives and methods in the study of continuities and discontinuities of word-order patterns. Bringing together contributions by specialists of various theoretical backgrounds and with expertise in different language families or groups (Caucasian, Hamito-Semitic, and - among Indo-European - Hittite, Greek, Celtic, Germanic, Slavonic, Romance), the book addresses issues like the notions of stability, variation and change of word-order and their interrelations, the interplay of syntactic and pragmatic factors, and the role of internal and external factors in synchronic and diachronic dynamics of word-order. The book contains a selection of papers presented at a workshop held at the XIII International Conference on Historical Linguistics (Düsseldorf, August 1997) and additonal invited contributions.
