Abstract:

Harmonic Grammar and Harmonic Serialism introduces readers to current research
in Optimality Theory that involves a reconsideration of two of Prince and
Smolensky’s (1993/2004) basic architectural decisions. One is the choice of
constraint ranking over the numerically weighted constraints of OT’s
predecessor, Harmonic Grammar. The other is the choice of parallel evaluation
over a version of OT in which the representation is changed and evaluated
iteratively – Harmonic Serialism.

The contributions in this volume explore the consequences for phonological
theory of adopting serial evaluation, weighted constraints, or both. Because
the volume contains both introductory material and the latest research, the
intended audience encompasses advanced undergraduates, graduate students and
professionals in the field. Although the content is mainly phonological, the
book will also be of use to researchers in OT syntax and computational
linguistics.
