Abstract:

This book gathers some contributions from scholars working on the phonetic 
and phonological causes of sound change. Experimental evidence collected 
during the last decades calls for the need to build up better models of sound 
change which incorporate evidence from articulatory strategies, acoustic 
variation and perceptual categorization mechanisms. The papers collected in 
this book deal with the explanation of several sound changes, i.e., vowel shift 
and diphthongization, consonant voicing, assimilation, palatalization, 
vocalization and retroflexion, and with specific arrangements of places of 
articulation in sibilant inventories. 

Contents: 

Silvia Calamai & Irene Ricci, "Speech rate and articulatory patterns in Italian 
nasal-velar clusters".

articulation-driven sound change".

driven phonetic changes in Medieval Spanish".

and acoustic factors triggering dark /l/ vocalization".
Joaquim Romero & Lucrecia Rallo, "An acoustic study of vowel shift in 
Majorcan Catalan". 
Fernando Sánchez Miret, "The effect of word final unstressed high vowels on 
stressed vowel duration and its consequences for metaphonic 
diphthongization in Southern Italian".

motivation".

dentoalveolar consonant sequences in the light of phonetic research".
