Книга А. Фокса представляет собой первое за последние 20 лет исследование природы просодических элементов языка – акцента, ударения, ритма, тона, высоты и интонации. В ней успешно обосновывается взаимосвязь этих элементов в фонетической системе языка.
Fox's book, the first substantial overview on the subject in twenty years, presents an overall view of the nature of prosodic features of language--accent, stress, rhythm, tone, pitch, and intonation--and shows how these connect to sound systems and meaning.
This book has a number of aims. At one level, it can be seen as a survey of different approaches to the phonological description of the prosodic features of speech, which it is hoped will prove useful to readers seeking a detailed account of theory in this area. In this capacity, of course, it cannot be exhaustive; the literature on these features is vast and beyond the scope of any one book to encompass. Inevitably, therefore, I have been forced to be selective, pursuing only those lines of enquiry which seem to me to offer a significant contribution to our understanding of these features, and especially those which are compatible with the overall conception that informs the book as a whole.
