Correspondencia de Prominencia en las Canciones Inglesas. Una Perspectiva Histórica

Published
Signa 22 (2013): 81-104.

Description
Diachronic study of how the linguistic stress matches metrical strong positions in spoken poetry and songs of the Middle and early modern English periods, including discussion of Chaucer's works. Prominent mismatches are more frequent in earlier songs because of phonological, rather than metrical, factors.
