(4) | Ingen | Underlying the apparent diversity shown by thousands of mutually incomprehensible languages of the world, there is a remarkable, elegant and principled unity in the way that these languages exploit the phonetic resources of speech. It is these principles that Professor Laver sets out to describe in this major new textbook. Assuming no previous knowledge of the subject, it is designed for readers who wish to pursue the study of phonetics from an initial to an advanced stage, equipping them with the necessary foundations for independent research. The book moves from a discussion of general concepts to a total of eleven chapters on phonetic classification, and it includes discussion of other issues such as the relationship between phonetics and phonology. There are illustrations from over 500 of the world's languages. Principles of Phonetics will be required reading for all serious students of speech and language.… (mere) |

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. In a preface, one can perhaps be allowed to make some personal remarks. In my own training in the Department of Phonetics of the University of Edinburgh, I had the great privilege of being taught by some of the leading phoneticians of the century. Foremost amongst these were David Abercrombie and Peter Ladefoged. Ian Catford was also in Edinburgh at that time, at the School of Applied Linguistics. The hallmarks of their teaching were a scrupulous attention to objective phonetic detail, the development of excellent practical skills of phonetic performance and perception, and a rigorous concern for the architecture of phonetic theory. The abiding motivation of their work was always the linguistic relevance of speech. [From the "Preface"]  This book is designed to equip the reader with a foundation for independent research in the phonetic study of speech. It makes no assumptions about prior knowledge of the subject, and is meant to be suitable as a comprehensive reference textbook on phonetics for graduates with no previous direct experience in the subject, who are following conversion courses to prepare themselves for research in phonetics and related subjects. It can also be used as a textbook supporting undergraduate courses on phonetics from elementary to advanced levels. [From the "Introduction"] The point of departure for this book is that speech is the most subtle and complex tool of communication that man has ever developed. The aim of this chapter is to discuss the nature of spoken communication, and to offer a broad framework within which the analysis of speech in general, and of spoken language in particular can be set. Some basic concepts are defined for use throughout the book. [From chapter 1, "The Semiotic Framework"] | |

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. I have tried to give an account of the full phonetic range of spoken language. Above all, as I said in the Introduction, I have tried to give the reader the opportunity to appreciate the paradox that underlying the apparently extraordinary diversity shown by the thousands of mutually incomprehensible languages of the world, there is a remarkable, elegant and principled unity in the way that these languages exploit the phonetic resources of speech. It is these principles of phonetics that I have tried to describe. [From the "Envoi"] (Klik for at vise Advarsel: Kan indeholde afsløringer.) | |
