Dear Wayne,
The title is:
Olsen, Mari Broman (1997) "A Semantic and Pragmatic Model of Lexical and
Grammatical Aspect", New York & London: Garland Publishing, Inc.
The book is a pearl of high value, not because of its conclusions regarding
Greek verbs (one or more of these may be disputed), but because of its
linguistic principles. Its methodology is simply unsurpassed, and all who
study Greek from a linguistic point of view should own a copy.
