  abstract  = {Storyline research links together events in stories and specifies shared
	participants in those stories. In these analyses, an atomic event is assumed to
	be a single clause headed by a single verb. However, many analyses of verbal
	semantics assume a decompositional analysis of events expressed in single
	clauses. We present a formalization of a decompositional analysis of events in
	which each participant in a clausal event has their own temporally extended
	subevent, and the subevents are related through causal and other interactions.
	This decomposition allows us to represent storylines as an evolving set of
	interactions between participants over time.},
