About this title

Synopsis

". . .this work represents a key case study in the study of the prosody and syntax interactions." (Pilar Prieto, Lingua 115, 2005)

Review

From the reviews:

"The analysis of the relevance Focus and Topic constructions from both the prosodic and syntactic perspective makes an innovative contribution to the literature on the interface between syntax and phonology, and, specifically, to the literature on phrasing. Moreover, it constitutes a significant addition to the study of Italian syntax and phonology."
