Abstract :
In this paper, we suggest that it should be possible to come closer to the Semantic Web goals by enhancing the ontology paradigm and, in particular, by supplementing the ´traditional´ ontologies of concepts with ´ontologies of events´. We present then some of the properties of NKRL (Narrative Knowledge Representation Language). This conceptual modeling formalism makes use of ontologies of events to denote the semantic characteristics of those ´narratives´ that represent a very large percentage of the global Web information.
