Abstract:

Word stress has long presented challenges to phonologists, as they have sought
to uncover patterns in its distribution, and devise models to account for its
behaviour and formal representation both within single languages and
cross-linguistically. In this collection, a team of world-renowned researchers
present a variety of viewpoints on the methods and problems involved. Offering
fresh perspectives on the topic and its study, this book is specifically
concerned with basing theoretical work on broad typological surveys and
focuses on the collection, selection and use of data in the analysis of word
stress and word rhythm, including their phonetic manifestations. An extensive
introduction presents a state-of-the-art review of stress research. The
contributors also present StressTyp2, a project in an advanced stage of
development, which intends to make publicly available information on word
stress in a broad sample of languages and will offer new ways of understanding
this key research area.
