Abstract (EN):
Temporal reasoning has been the focus of several studies during the past years, both in linguistics and
computational studies. Although advances on this topic are undeniable, there are still improvements
to be made and new avenues to pursue. One relevant problem concerns the temporal ordering of the
events, particularly asserting and representing how events are temporally related and how the story
told in the narrative evolves. This paper aims to analyse the temporal structure of narratives present
in news articles with the aid of di"erent visualisations. To this end, we annotated a dataset of 119
news articles in European Portuguese following an annotation scheme that combines di"erent parts of
ISO 24617-Language Resource Management - Semantic Annotation Framework (SemAF). The temporal
layer of this annotation scheme identi!es the events and their main features, as well as the temporal
links between the events. The annotation provided us with paramount information about the temporal
characteristics of news at two levels: the story and the report levels. The visualisations that we propose
facilitate the process of understanding how news are temporally organised, providing a more practical
means to observe them.
