Abstract:

Editor's Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced book.

Stress and accent are central, organizing features of grammar, but their
precise nature continues to be a source of mystery and wonder. These issues
come to the forefront in acquisition, where the tension between the abstract
mental representations and the concrete physical manifestations of stress and
accent is deeply reflected. Understanding the nature of the representations of
stress and accent patterns, and understanding how stress and accent patterns
are learned, informs all aspects of linguistic theory and language
acquisition. These two themes - representation and acquisition - form the
organizational backbone of this book. Each is addressed along different
dimensions of stress and accent, including the position of an accent or stress
within various prosodic domains and the acoustic dimensions along which the
pronunciation of stress and accent may vary. The research presented in the
book is multidisciplinary, encompassing theoretical linguistics, speech
science, and computational and experimental research.
