Speech Prosody Workshop Announcement
CROSSIN: Intonation at the Crossroads Speech Prosody Satellite Workshop, Leiden, Saturday 6 July 2024
WORKSHOP ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR POSTER PRESENTATIONS Intonation is studied by different disciplines in which the research focus varies. One element these approaches have in common is that they must all address intonation meaning. This applies whether researchers are mostly interested in the phonological representation of intonation, its interaction with syntax, semantics, and pragmatics, or its role in communication and speech processing. These perspectives complement each other, yet it is often the case that research focusing on one does not give full consideration to the others: for instance, syntactic approaches to the role of intonation in expressing focus may overlook differences in phonological form in focus expression, while pragmatic approaches may assume that each meaning nuance is directly expressed by a different tune; conversely, studies on intonation phonetics and phonology do not always fully consider meaning.
The aim of this workshop is to reach a more comprehensive view, by bringing together researchers working on intonation from different perspectives so they can enter into dialogue with and learn from each another. The main questions of the workshop are:
We invite abstracts addressing the questions above. The selected abstracts will be presented in a poster session. If there is sufficient interest, poster presentations will be published as a special issue or collection.
Keynote speakers: The workshop also includes invited talks by Stavros Skopeteas (Göttingen), Anja Arnhold (Alberta), and commentaries by James German (Aix-Marseille) and Claire Beyssade (Paris 8). The workshop will end with a general round-table discussion. For more information on the workshop, visit https://www.sprintproject.io/crossinworkshop or http://tinyurl.com/y7zj8h5f .
