| dc.description | Focusing on weight-insensitive binary stress systems, the article presents an approach to metrical stress that is more restrictive than standard approaches and more accurate in its predictions. The proposalʼs restrictiveness derives from a set of constraints and structural assumptions that run counter to prevailing theoriesʼ fundamental principles. For example, the proposed account assumes strict succession between prosodic categories, ensuring that syllables are exhaustively parsed into feet. It tolerates improper bracketing of prosodic categories, allowing feet to overlap and to share entries on the metrical grid. Finally, it makes the foot–stress relationship violable, allowing feet to remain stressless under appropriate rankings. The article examines each of these assumptions and demonstrates how they combine to more accurately predict attested typologies. |

| Название | A restrictive theory of metrical stressThe approach to metrical stress proposed here has benefited from the insights of numerous colleagues. I am indebted to Akin Akinlabi, Eric Baković, Laura Benua, Paul de Lacy, Ben Hermans, Ed Keer, Nicole Nelson and Bruce Tesar. I am especially indebted, however, to Alan Prince, whose extensive comments and suggestions have led to improvements in every aspect of the proposal. Any faults remaining are my own responsibility. |
