Sinopsis

Prosodic Variation (with)in Languages focuses on research on prosodic variation, comprising intonation, prosodic phrasing, and segmental phenomena that are prosodically motivated or constrained. 


The languages investigated in this volume are diverse and include understudied languages and varieties. Besides Portuguese (European, Brazilian, and African varieties), this book covers another three unrelated languages and their varieties: Romanian, Arabic, and Assamese (spoken in India and Bangladesh). The experimental and theoretical approaches share a common goal: to add to the knowledge of prosodic variation in language, and to contribute to the understanding of prosodic grammar. 


This book will be a valuable resource to students and scholars interested in prosody, language variation and language typology.

Acerca de los autores

Marisa Cruz is a Researcher at the Phonetics and Phonology Lab (CLUL/FLUL), University of Lisbon. She obtained a PhD on prosodic variation in European Portuguese (phrasing, intonation and rhythm) in 2013, in the same institution. She is currently member of the Direction Board of Center of Linguistics of the University of Lisbon, where she investigates visual prosody in European Portuguese, by comparing the prosodic role of gestures in spoken language with the prosody of Portuguese Sign Language. Her research interests also cover language acquisition and language disorders.

Sónia Frota is Full Professor of Experimental Linguistics at the University of Lisbon. Her research seeks to understand the properties of prosodic systems (phrasing, intonation, and rhythm), the extent to which they vary across and within languages, and how they are acquired by infants and help to bootstrap the learning of language. She is the editor in chief of the Journal of Portuguese Linguistics (since 2002), and the Director of the Center of Linguistics at the University of Lisbon (since 2020).
