Abstract:

Taking an interdisciplinary approach to phonological theory and analysis, 'A
Critical Introduction to Phonology' introduces the key aspects of the
discipline. Departing from the mainstream tradition, Daniel Silverman argues
that the nature of linguistic sound systems can only be understood in the
context of how they are used by speakers and listeners.

By proposing that linguistic sound systems are the product of an interaction
among sound (acoustics), mind (cognition), and body (physiology), Silverman
focuses on the functional consequences of their interaction. Now with each
chapter supplemented by a section on “Doing Phonology”, together with
phonological examples from a large corpus of data, this expanded second
edition offers a provocative introduction to phonological theory. This book is
essential reading for all students and researchers of phonology who are
already familiar with the standard approaches and provides both a new
theoretical background and the mechanical tools for truly successful
phonological analyses.
