A comprehensive overview of current developments in phonological theory, by providing a number of papers in different areas of current theorizing which reflect on particular problems from different angles. This volume deals with phonological structure above the segmental level, in particular with syllable structure, metrical structure and sentence-level prosodic structure.

The Phonological Spectrum: Suprasegmental structure

The two volumes of the Phonological Spectrum aim at giving a comprehensive overview of current developments in phonological theory, by providing a number of papers in different areas of current theorizing which reflect on particular problems from different angles. Volume II deals with phonological structure above the segmental level, in particular with syllable structure, metrical structure and sentence-level prosodic structure. Different syllable structure theories, as well as possible relations between segment structure and syllabic structure, and evidence from language acquisition and aphasia are examined in section 1. Metrical structure is examined in papers on foot structure, and, experimentally, on word stress in Indonesian. Finally in this volume, there are three laboratory-phonological reports on the intonation of Dutch.

Louis C. W. Pols

This volume is intended to give colleagues in the field of speech technology an overall idea of the work involved in the research program Analysis and Synthesis of Speech (ASSP). THis five-year program, 1985-1990, was conducted by six speech research groups in the Netherlands. THe researchers' contributions to this volume offer systematic insight into the procedures and techniques employed in the development of a laboratory system for high-quality text-to-speech conversion.
