The Phonology of Catalan
This is the most comprehensive account of Catalan phonology ever published. Catalan is a Romance language, occupying a position somewhere between French, Spanish, and Italian. It is the first language of six and a half million people in the northeastern Spain and of the peoples of Andorra, French Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, and a small region of Sardinia. Dr Wheeler describes Barcelona pronunciation and the major varieties of western Catalonia, Valencia, and Majorca, and considers social and stylistic variation. The author's approach is through a clear, pragmatic version of orthodox Optimality Theory and is informed by close attention to articulatory phonetics. He includes a substantial...
Phonological Theory and the Dialects of Italy
These articles provide new explorations into phonological patterns attested in the minor Romance languages (‘dialects’) spoken in Italy. The goal of this book is both theoretical and empirical. First, it aims to introduce non-Italianists to the phonological structures of the Italian dialects, including northern Gallo-Romance dialects, central and southern dialects, plus a Francoprovençal dialect spoken in southern Italy and a Catalan dialect spoken in Sardinia. Second, the collection provides readers with sophisticated analyses of complex and poorly understood and under-studied phonological phenomena. Over half of the articles contain data collected by the authors, and most of the data have not been available in English language publications. The richness of the empirical material and the sophistication of the theoretical analyses make this collection a particularly important contribution to both phonology and Romance language studies.
Catalan
First Published in 2004. Among the languages of Europe spoken by bilingual communities, Catalan has a special status because of its vitality. Catalan enjoys official recognition in Catalonia, Valencia and the Balearic Islands, in spain and in the principality of Andorra. Catalan is of importance within the Romance family because it constitutes a link between the Ibero-Romance family of languages and the Gallo-Romance branches. This book will be of interest to both Romanists and general linguists engaged in comparative work.
Vocales en grupo
El libro aborda de manera clara la pronunciación de las vocales que se hallan en situación de contacto en español desde tres perspectivas de análisis: la descripción fonética, la norma ortológica y la representación ortográfica. Desde el primer capítulo se hallan definidos los conceptos que conforman el marco de descripción y que permiten analizar de manera exhaustiva los grupos de dos, tres o más vocales, tanto en interior de palabra como en el enlace de palabras. Para cada fenómeno, se señalan las pronunciaciones propias de la lengua estándar y los rasgos asociados a factores geográficos y sociales, seguidos de los preceptos ortológicos y las normas ortográficas. En el libro se repasan, además, los logros obtenidos en el análisis fonético y fonológico de las vocales del español en los últimos años. Por todo ello y por la intención divulgativa con que ha sido redactado, puede ser de utilidad a un público amplio: estudiantes universitarios de grado, docentes en enseñanza secundaria o de formación de español, profesionales de los medios de comunicación y, en general, cualquier persona interesada en la pronunciación del español.

Extravagant Morphology
Taking extra-vagans literally (Lat. ‘wandering outside, out of bounds’), this volume comprises nine case studies on extravagant morphology ranging from pattern-extending derivational processes via theory-challenging compounding processes to interface-straddling morphosyntactic phenomena. As a heuristic approach, morphological extravagance captures word-formation processes characterised by constraint violations, interface phenomena as well as borderline phenomena not easily reconcilable with traditional postulates of morphological accounts. In this regard, the notion of extravagance allows for an exploration of rule-bending language use both empirically and theoretically. The volume makes a valuable contribution to studies on morphological variation, which has only recently seen a renewed and growing interest in morphological phenomena that challenge morphological frameworks. The volume is of interest to all researchers who seek to gain a broader understanding of the mechanisms and factors at work in morphological variation and who are interested in the reassessment of morphological theorising in light of empirical data.
