Taking the phonological model of intonation developed by Pierrehumbert (1880 et seq.) as point of departure, this work illuminates the communicative function of English pitch contours by (1) giving a detailed survey of phrase-final contours found in statements and questions, and (2) investigating what attitudinal features determine choice of phrasal tones in these utterance types. This comprehensive study will be of interest to linguists in a number of fields, ranging from prosody to semantics, pragmatics, and discourse analysis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christine Bartels\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815333560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815333562\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 316\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.81h x 5.78w x 0.90d","brand":"Christine Bartels","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086930325759,"sku":"9780815333562","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0c05ee7f-4f8d-469a-9902-ca09880f2aa5.jpg?v=1769097348","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-intonation-of-english-statements-christine-bartels-9780815333562","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
