Leading researchers survey the main theories of information structure in syntax, phonology, and semantics as well as perspectives from\u003cbr\u003epsycholinguistics and other relevant fields. Following the editors' introduction the book is divided into four parts. The first, on theories of and theoretical perspectives on information structure, includes chapters on topic, prosody, and implicature. Part 2 covers a range of current issues in the\u003cbr\u003efield, including focus, quantification, and sign languages, while Part 3 is concerned with experimental approaches to information structure, including processes involved in its acquisition and comprehension. The final part contains a series of linguistic case studies drawn from a wide variety of the\u003cbr\u003eworld's language families. This volume will be the standard guide to current work in information structure and a major point of departure for future research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Caroline Fery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 6.60w x 2.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198826767\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCaroline Fery\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor of Phonology at the Goethe University Frankfurt.
