Ce numéro des Cahiers Chronos est une sélection d’articles présentés lors du Colloque Chronos 6 tenu à l’Université de Genève en 2004 (20-22 septembre, Syntaxe, sémantique et pragmatique du temps, de la modalité et de l’aspect ). Le thème de ce numéro a permis de regrouper des articles couvrant une grande variété d’orientations théoriques tout en partageant des préoccupations théoriques et empiriques communes. Le thème général du numéro, Information temporelle, procédures et ordre discursif , regroupe des articles portant sur des questions de référence temporelle, de description des informations procédurales des marques temporelles, de leurs effets dans le discours et de connecteurs ( avant que, et, puis, alors, parce que ) ou d’opérateur temporels ( déjà ). Parmi les questions centrales que ce livre aborde se trouvent : i) la contribution des expressions temporelles à l’interprétation du discours en tant que séquence organisée d’énoncés, ii) les mécanismes d’interprétation qu’ils déclenchent et iii) la formalisation la plus adéquate pour en rendre compte.

This book is a collection of articles dealing with theoretical issues in the study of tense, mood and aspect, as well as with specific semantic and syntactic problems raised by linguistic expressions dedicated to these domains across a variety of languages. Through these papers, strong variations are explored, but also crosslinguistic convergences are investigated. Numerous phenomena so far often left aside in linguistics are described and enlightened by different scientific standpoints, which they serve to illustrate. The languages investigated in this volume include Germanic languages (Dutch, English, German), Romance (French, Catalan, Italian), Slavic (Serbo-Croatian, Czech, Russian), Greek, and non-indoeuropean languages such as Thai, Digo and Kikuyu. Related topics such as grammaticalization, presuppositions, questions in dialogue, illocutionary acts and acquisition are incidentally called upon in order to shed light from the outside onto tense, mood (and modality) and aspect. This volume is of great interest for all scholars engaged in contemporary research on the linguistic expression of tense, mood and aspect. The papers gathered in this volume are a tight selection of the ones that were presented at the 6th Chronos colloquium.

This collection investigates the architecture of focus in linguistic theory from different theoretical perspectives. Research on focus and information structure in the last four decades has shown that the phenomenon of focus is highly complex, the theoretical approaches manifold, and the data highly sensitive. The main emphasis has been placed on the integration of the notion of focus in generative grammar. In recent years, however, the approaches to focus and information structure underwent a radical change in perspective. The theoretical concept of focus, its related terms and phenomena became the object of research. Along with it, the research questions shifted: instead of locating focus in the architecture of grammar, linguists investigate the architecture of focus itself. The central underlying idea of this collection is to document this change in perspective with the aim of isolating essential keystones and research areas in both the theoretical and empirical domain. The book is structured accordingly. Following the introduction, there are four main sections: The general section discusses the theoretical foundations of focus within grammar. The second section hosts papers which investigate the representation of focus and topic at the syntax-pragmatics interface. The third section discusses the phonological representation of focus and its relation to meaning. The papers of the final section investigate different types of focus constructions in a variety languages. The collection of papers on the architecture of focus, its interpretation and representation mirror the establishment of the focus research field.
