The ten chapters in this book give an overview of current research covering regional varieties of English, German, Italian and Greek. While all contributions share a general autosegmental perspective, they represent different approaches and use different types of data ranging from experimental speech data to spontaneous conversational speech.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Insgesamt vermittelt der Sammelband nicht nur einen facettenreichen Einblick in die Erforschung regionaler Variation von Intonation, sondern damit auch auch gleichzeitig in die moderne Phonologie. Das theoretische Niveau ist anspruchsvoll und bei aller Nahe zu einem autosegmentalen Rahmen zeigt sich auch eine wohltuende Offenheit fur damit weniger konforme Perspektiven.\"Uli Reich in: Zeitschrift fur Sprachwissenschaft 6\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eContents:\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cb\u003ePeter Gilles\u003c\/b\u003e\/\u003cb\u003eJörg Peters\u003c\/b\u003e, Introduction. - \u003cb\u003eEsther Grabe\u003c\/b\u003e, Intonational variation in urban dialects of English spoken in the British Isles. - \u003cb\u003eMargit Aufterbeck\u003c\/b\u003e, Identifying sociolinguistic variables in intonation: The Onset Onglide in Anstruther Scottish English. - \u003cb\u003eMargret Selting\u003c\/b\u003e, Regionalized intonation in its conversational context. - \u003cb\u003eFrank Kügler\u003c\/b\u003e, The phonology and phonetics of nuclear rises in Swabian German. - \u003cb\u003eChristiane Ulbrich\u003c\/b\u003e, A comparative study of declarative intonation in Swiss and German standard varieties. - \u003cb\u003eKarin Birkner\u003c\/b\u003e, List intonation of German and Portuguese bilinguals in South Brazil. - \u003cb\u003eMichelina Savino\u003c\/b\u003e, Intonational cues to discourse structure in a regional variety of Italian. - \u003cb\u003eMartine Grice\u003c\/b\u003e\/\u003cb\u003eMichelina Savino\u003c\/b\u003e, Information structure and questions.
