This paper will focus on new elements which are common in the interpretive analysis of temporality. Temporality is an abstraction which joins together all of the elements contributing to the conveying of details about the chronology, the distance and the duration of events in a certain context. This paper is mainly divided into a first half discussing the temporal divisions on the time axis and a second which deals with situations which happen in the present, in the past or in the future as they are placed on the temporal axis and illustrate of the temporal domain to which they belong.
