Abstract

The book analyzes the articulatory motivation of several adaptation processes (place assimilations, blending, coarticulation) involving consecutive consonants in heterosyllabic consonant sequences within the framework of the degree of articulatory constraint model of coarticulation. It also shows that the homorganic relationship between two heterosyllabic consonants contributes to the implementation of manner assimilations, while heterorganicity as well as sonorancy and voicing in the syllable-onset C2 are key factors in the weakening of the syllable-coda C1. Experimental and descriptive evidence is provided with production, phonological and sound change data from several languages, and more especifically with tongue-to-palate contact and lingual configuration data for Catalan consonant sequences. The book also reviews critically research on the c-center effect in tautosyllabic consonant sequences which has been carried out during the last thirty years.

Abstract

The origins of sound change is one of the oldest and most challenging questions in the study of language. The goal of this volume is to examine current approaches to sound change from a variety of theoretical and methodological perspectives, including articulatory variation and modeling, speech perception mechanisms and neurobiological processes, geographical and social variation, and diachronic phonology. This diversity of perspectives contributes to a fruitful cross-fertilization across disciplines and represents an attempt to formulate converging ideas on the factors that lead to sound chan

Abstract

The nine papers included in this book investigate a variety of topics on sound change in several Romance languages (French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Catalan, and Romanian) using different sources of evidence and several methodologies. This collection of papers contributes significantly to our knowledge about the inception and diffusion of sound change and the typological factors which constrain their implementation. The book should be of particular interest to phoneticians and phonologists insofar as, among other issues, it deals with patterns of syllable structure, degree of stability of vowel contrasts, and preference for certain consonant sequences and sound replacements over others.

Abstract

Ces nouveaux territoires ne se limitent pas à des critères purement thématiques, mais ils embrassent à la fois la diversité linguistique et surtout explorent les formes qu'investit actuellement le discours poétique. Le Centre d'Études et de Recherches sur la Péninsule Ibérique (CERPI / ERILAR de l'université Rennes 2) en faisant appel aux francisants, italianistes et Iusistes entend comparer les différentes pratiques qui constituent la spécificité du lyrisme contemporain. Les questions centrales qui ont dominé les débats portent sur les nouvelles contraintes formelles – qui n'ont pas fait disparaître totalement le "vers classique" –, sur les liens entre poésie et plasticité, sur les rapports que le sujet lyrique entretient avec l'Histoire et surtout sur la nature de la voix poématique. Les analyses s'appuient sur des exemples précis, en particulier les œuvres de D. Fourcade, G. Ungaretti, O. Paz, J. Sites, J. A Valente, A. Gamoneda, A. Amorôs et offrent des outils aux enseignants et aux étudiants pour aborder la poésie contemporaine.
