7-8 Special Issue 'Prosody and Interfaces'
  

The Special Issue ?Prosody and Interfaces? welcomes contributions on the interaction between prosody and other grammar components (e.g., morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics), focusing on the Portuguese language. Besides aiming at gathering the papers presented at Symposia 7 and 2 of the I International Congress Voices and Writings in the Different Spaces of the Portuguese Language, organized by the Postgraduate Program in Vernacular Letters (PPGLEV) of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), in November 2020 (http://congressoppglev.letras.ufrj.br/congress/), this special issue is broadly open to other (unpublished) related research papers.

 

Potential themes/topics of this special issue include but are not limited to the following: 

- prosodic similarities/differences across Portuguese varieties;

- prosodic properties of Portuguese in contact with other languages;

- prosodic properties of Portuguese as second language;

- prosody and the expression of emotions;

- visual prosody;

- the prosody of signed languages;

- the role of prosody for the linguistic processing (of spoken or written modalities);

- perception of prosody;

- ?

 

We encourage the submission of  papers using experimental methods, targeting a broad reader, and envisaging the application to other research areas, such as first/second language learning, computational linguistics, speech therapy, among others.
