Tones and Tunes. Volume 1

Vol. 1: Typological Studies in Word and Sentence Prosody. Edited by Thomas Riad and Carlos Gussenhoven.

Despite the recent advances in the integration of lexical tone and intonation in phonological theory, all too often the study of intonation and the study of lexical tone are viewed as belonging to different research traditions. This collection strengthens the integrated approach by studying tone and intonation within a common framework, and by tracing their interaction in specific prosodic systems.
