Summary:

This book is the first comprehensive survey of mood in the languages
of Europe. It gives readers access to a collection of data on mood.
Each article presents the mood system of a specific European language
in a way that readers not familiar with this language are able to
understand and to interpret the data. The articles contain
information on the morphology and semantics of the mood system, the
possible combinations of tense and mood morphology, and the possible
uses of the non-indica­tive mood(s). The papers address the
explanation of mood from an empirical and descriptive perspective.
This book is of interest to scholars of mood and modality, language
contact, and areal linguistics and typology.
