Time is a fundamental aspect of human cognition and action. Alllanguages have developed rich means to express various facets oftime, such as bare time spans, their position on the time line, ortheir duration. This volume explores what we know about the neuraland cognitive representations of time that speakers can draw on inlanguage.

Considers the role time plays as an essential element of humancognition and action, providing important insights to inform andextend current studies of time in language and in languageacquisition

Examines the main devices used to encode time in naturallanguage, such as lexical elements, tense, and aspect, and draws onthe latest psychological and neurobiological findings

Addresses a range of issues, including: the relationshipbetween temporal language, culture, and thought; the relationshipbetween verb aspect and mental simulations of events; thedevelopment of temporal concepts; time perception; the storage andretrieval of temporal information in autobiographical memory; andneural correlates of tense processing and sequence planning
