Narrative Event Semantics

Narrative Event Semantics is a theoretical framework within event semantics that formally characterizes the temporal, aspectual, and causal structure of events as they are linguistically represented in narrative discourse, distinguishing itself by its focus on how sequentiality, coherence, and perspective constrain event interpretation in extended texts.
