The volume has three sections. The first section is devoted to theoretical issues in evidentiality and modality and some case studies of different languages. Section two is dedicated to contributions to the study of evidentiality from a diachronic perspective, including issues of grammaticalization. The third part presents the results of a research project on the expression of evidentiality and writer stance in newspaper discourse in English and Spanish, funded by the Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología.
