[CEL – STIH] International conference | Modality and its interfaces with aspectuality, temporality and epistemicity

Modality and its interfaces with aspectuality, temporality and epistemicity

Paris, 5-6 juin 2025

The informal International Working Group Modalität im Deutschen was founded in 1992. Eleven meetings have been held since then, with the focus of the conference gradually expanding to all Germanic languages and to contrastive perspectives, especially within the Germanic family and between German and other languages. The relationship between epistemic modality and evidentiality, which are now often grouped into one macro-category of epistemicity, has become a recurring topic. The same holds for the interface of modality with aspectuality and temporality.

The 12^th meeting of the working group will take place in Paris, at Sorbonne University, on June 5^th-6^th, 2025.
