Abstract:

This handbook presents detailed accounts of current research in all aspects of
language prosody, written by leading experts from different disciplines. The
last four decades have seen major theoretical and empirical breakthroughs in
the field, many of them informed by interdisciplinary approaches, as reflected
in this volume. Following an introductory section covering the fundamentals of
language prosody research, Parts II and III trace out the position of prosody
in linguistic structure and explore prosody in speech perception and
production. Part IV provides overviews of prosodic systems across the world,
with case studies from Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia and the Pacific, and
the Americas. The chapters in Parts V, VI, and VII investigate prosody in
communication, in language processing, and in language acquisition, while Part
VIII examines prosody in technology and the arts. The volume's comprehensive
coverage and multidisciplinary perspectives will make it an invaluable
resource for all researchers, students, and practitioners interested in
prosody.
