Meisterernst presents students, academics, and researchers with a comprehensive investigation of grammatical issues in Archaic and Medieval Chinese, including analysis of the syntactic and semantic constraints of tense and aspect and their affect on the verb in the Chinese language during the Han period. The author has organized the main body of her text in six chapters devoted to the category tense, the category aspect, tense and aspect in Chinese, and a variety of other related subjects.
