Abstract
Zampaulo’s monograph aims to accomplish a daunting task: to connect the historical pathways that resulted in various palatal outcomes in Romance to current palatal synchronic variation in this language family, and to provide a phonetically grounded formal analysis for both. The volume is organised into seven chapters. The first three provide a general introduction to the volume, the theoretical framework employed for the analysis and the main articulatory and acoustic properties of palatal consonants. The next three chapters comprise the core of the investigation. Chapter 4 focuses on the historical development of palatals in Romance, while Chapter 5 examines the current dialectal variation of palatals in this language family. Chapter 6 presents a formal account of diachronic and synchronic palatal variation in this family, and Chapter 7 offers some concluding remarks.
期刊介绍：
Phonology, published three times a year, is the only journal devoted exclusively to the discipline, and provides a unique forum for the productive interchange of ideas among phonologists and those working in related disciplines. Preference is given to papers which make a substantial theoretical contribution, irrespective of the particular theoretical framework employed, but the submission of papers presenting new empirical data of general theoretical interest is also encouraged. The journal carries research articles, as well as book reviews and shorter pieces on topics of current controversy within phonology.
