Citazioni

There are close parallels between temporal and spatial expressions, the most significant ones being the following. (i) As already indicated, both incorporate the notions of extent and location: we recognize not only extent and location in space but also extent and location in time [...] In both time and space, both extent and location may be either definite or indefinite.
