Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of French Prosody: With Specimens of French Verse From the Twelfth Century to the Present Day This book is mainly intended for advanced stu dents of French already possessing some knowledge of French literature, and more especially of French poetry. But it is addressed also to the larger public of those who take an interest in reading the French poets. It is not, therefore, intended to be a text book and that alone. It aims at being a sort of guide pointing out to the passer-by that which might possibly escape his notice. Its object is to train the reader's ear and to quicken his powers of observation. All those questions that we regard as essential to the understanding of the technique of French verse have been discussed in this book. We have said nothing of the theory of the role of the accent (tonic or other), which seems to us at present oh scure, and only to be elucidated by the methods of experimental phonetics. The question of the origin of French verse, again, is too little advanced for treatment in this book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1884 edition. Excerpt: ... ON SOME MISCELLANEOUS POINTS OF PRONUNCIATION, DICTION, AND STYLE. ONE of the difficulties in the way of an Englishman's appreciating French poetry is the treatment of words and names from his own and other accented languages. Words from German, English, Italian, Latin, Greek, or Hebrew, if pronounced with the proper accent, are essentially incompatible with French in a way that they are not with other languages. Accordingly, they are in French verse deprived of the tonic accent, and pronounced as far as possible as if they were French words of similar spelling, except that final consonants are usually sounded. Thus, since ei in peine --a. short open e, ei in Heine is pronounced in the same way. The au in Faust is treated as 3, and so is the o in lost. and accordingly these words can rhyme. Tom, qu'un abandon scandalise, Recite Love's Labour Lost; Et Fritz explique a Cydalise Le Walpurgisnichtstraum de Faust. Th. Gautier, Emaux et Camies. The e mute of English, which is now a mere typographical sign, and the atonic final e of German, which is more of a syllable than the French e mute, are both assimilated entirely to e mute. Thus Love's is a dissyllable in the stanza just quoted, and Gladstone counts as three syllables in the following couplet: -- Personne pour toi. Tous sont d'accord. Celui-ci, Nomme Gladstone, dit a tes bourreaux: Merci. V. Hugo, VAnnee Terrible. In Latin, short e counts as e, um as omm, and the vowels are generally nasalized before n, as in the ordinary French school-boy pronunciation. One result of the removal of the tonic accent is, that final syllables, which would be quite atonic in their own language, are made to bear the caesura and rhyme. Baudelaire even goes so far as to write rhymes in...

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of French Prosody for the Use of English Students It has for some time seemed to me singular English boys should be expected to read and appreciate French verse by the light of the intellectus sibi permissus; while no one dreams of applying the same system, or rather want of system, to the study of Sophocles or Catullus. Doubtless the Greek and Latin metres are more intricate than the French; yet it may be questioned, on the other hand, whether they are not more natural to the English ear. At any rate, it may safely be asserted that French prosody, being untaught, remains in most cases unknown, and French verse continues to be to the French-reading and French-speaking Englishman a mysterious kind of prose. There are excellent French treatises on versification, notably those of Pierre Richelet, M. Napoleon Landais, M. de Banville, and M. Mainard, on which the present little book is principally based. But from the standpoint of an Englishman, still more of an English boy, these books are at once inadequate and over-elaborate. They lack the explanations required by the foreigner, whose ear is attuned to other combinations; they enter into details of taste unnecessary to a beginner; and they are tainted with the party spirit of the controversy between Classicism and Romanticism.

Download or read book Prosody and Language in Contact written by Elisabeth Delais-Roussarie and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-18 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides new insights into various issues on prosody in contact situations, contact referring here to the L2 acquisition process as well as to situations where two language systems may co-exist. A wide array of phenomena are dealt with (prosodic description of linguistic systems in contact situations, analysis of prosodic changes, language development processes, etc.), and the results obtained may give an indication of what is more or less stable in phonological and prosodic systems. In addition, the selected papers clearly show how languages may have influenced or may have been influenced by other language varieties (in multilingual situations where different languages are in constant contact with one another, but also in the process of L2 acquisition). Unlike previous volumes on related topics, which focus in general either on L2 acquisition or on the description and analyses of different varieties of a given language, this volume considers both topics in parallel, allowing comparison and discussion of the results, which may shed new light on more far-reaching theoretical questions such as the role of markedness in prosody and the causes of prosodic changes.

Download or read book The Development of Prosody in First Language Acquisition written by Pilar Prieto and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prosodic development is increasingly recognized as a fundamental stepping stone in first language acquisition. Prosodic sensitivity starts developing very early, with newborns becoming attuned to the prosodic properties of the ambient language, and it continues to develop during childhood until early adolescence. In the last decades, a flourishing literature has reported on the varied set of prosodic skills that children acquire and how they interact with other linguistic and cognitive skills. This book compiles a set of seventeen short review chapters from distinguished experts that have contributed significantly to our knowledge about how prosody develops in first language acquisition. The ultimate aim of the book is to offer a complete state of the art on prosodic development that allows the reader to grasp the literature from an interdisciplinary and critical perspective. This volume will be of interest to scholars and students of psychology, linguistics, cognitive science, speech therapy, and education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph describes the development of Rhapsodie, a 33,000-word syntactic and prosodic treebank of spoken French created with the aim of modeling the interface between prosody, syntax and discourse in spoken French. Theoretical foundations and methodological choices are presented and discussed, and compared with other contemporary approaches. Why is a data-driven instead of a corpus-based approach necessary when one wants to model and analyze discourse without neglecting the features typical of everyday speech, in order to capture not only what we say but also how we say it? How can one show that verbal exchange operates as a collaborative enterprise and how can the specific syntactic and prosodic markers of this collaboration be merged? The description proposed in this collective book is of interest for specialists of spoken French studies, and also for scholars who would like to extend Rhapsodie-like annotation schemes to other languages.

Download or read book Prosody and Syntax written by Yuji Kawaguchi and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of papers is the third volume of the series Usage-Based Linguistic Informatics (UBLI), a product of the 21st Century COE Program of the Tokyo University of Foreign Studies (TUFS). Prosody, as used in this text, appears in units larger than segments and generally refers to the field that studies various phonological properties connected to utterances involving pitch, intensity, and length. These phonetic features almost always appear within complex combinations such as word and sentence accents and intonation. The subtitle, Cross-Linguistic perspectives, does not imply mere, cross-linguistic comparison and contrast of the prosodic phenomena. Rather, it implies that there are a variety of approaches which are unique to each language for prosodic analysis. In fact, the volume consists of prosodic analyses in 12 different languages : French, English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Makonde, Indonesian, Tagalog and Turkish.
