Future Times, Future Tenses by Mikhail Kissine

Philippe De Brabanter holds a PhD in Linguistics from the Université Libre de Bruxelles (2002). A member of Institut Jean Nicod and Maître de Conférences at Université Paris-Sorbonne until 2012, he currently teaches English linguistics at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. His research has centred on the semantics-pragmatics interface, with special attention to ordinary meta-discourse (quotation, semantic deference and metalinguistic anaphora). Mikhail Kissine is assistant professor at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. He is the author of From Utterances to Speech Acts (CUP, 2013), and the co-author, with Mark Jary, of Imperatives (CUP, in press). In addition, he has published widely on semantics, pragmatics and philosophy of language. Saghie Sharifzadeh is a Maître de Conférences at the Université Paris - Sorbonne. She holds a PhD in English Linguistics from the same university (2012) as well as the agrégation in English. She has worked extensively on the English verb and on verbal anaphora, and has recently been focusing on colour terms.
