This book examines the expression of the future in a range of diverse languages and from a variety of theoretical perspectives. It reveals the value of linking linguistic considerations of tense and aspect to philosophical approaches to modality and time and will be a valuable resource for all those working on time, tense, and temporal reference.

Philippe De Brabanter holds a PhD in Linguistics from the Université Libre de Bruxelles (2002). A member of Institut Jean Nicod and Maître de Conférences at Université Paris-Sorbonne until 2012, he currently teaches English linguistics at the Université Libre de Bruxelles.

Mikhail Kissine is assistant professor at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. He is the author of From Utterances to Speech Acts (CUP, 2013), and the co-author, with Mark Jary, of Imperatives (CUP, in press). In addition, he has published widely on semantics, pragmatics and philosophy of language. Saghie Sharifzadeh is a Maître de Conférences at the Université Paris - Sorbonne. She holds a PhD in English Linguistics from the same university (2012) as well as the agrégation in English. She has worked extensively on the English verb and on verbal anaphora, and has recently been focusing on colour terms.
