Abstract:

Research on the English language suggests that the relationship between 
phonological prominence, word order, and focus-better known as focus 
projection-is mediated through syntax. This book breaks new ground with 
its demonstration of how the Serbo-Croatian language shows the workings of 
this relationship.

Svetlana Godjevac explores the development of focus projection. Further 
distinguishing her work from the numerous studies of the English language, 
she analyzes how focus projection in Serbo-Croatian also depends on the 
semantic type of the prominence bearing element. This volume is an 
innovative analysis of linguistic theory as well as a study of a lesser 
examined language.
