Summary "This book presents Jorgen Rischel's most important work on language and sound structure. It includes some of the most original and groundbreaking research of four decades. The articles focus on stress, syllabification, accent, and vowel harmony, and their interactions with other aspects of language. They include exemplary descriptions of the sound systems of a wide range of languages, cover both synchronic and diachronic analysis, and reflect the author's lifelong interest in typology. The book will interest phonologists, phoneticians, and language typologists throughout the world."--Jacket
