McIntosh tested portions of the manuscript with veterans, ensuring

SUMMARY This book began as a contribution to the excellent online Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. It has since been considerably expanded, but remains quite a short book. (It is printed in an unusually narrow page format, perhaps in order to swell the page-count to a respectable figure for a standalone book.) Despite its brevity, the book covers a remarkable amount of ground. Its central focus, as might be expected, is on what is standardly called the 鈥淪apir鈥揥horf Hypothesis鈥� or just the

Multilingualism is the normal condition for contemporary as well as historical human societies. However, European nation-state building has led to a strong 鈥渕onolingual habitus鈥� that constructs a community of monolingual speakers as bearers of a nation. This erases or exoticises multilinguistic practices and excludes multilingual speakers. The effects of this exclusion are visible in the public discourse on multilingual speakers, where we find a widespread 鈥淥thering鈥� of multilingual speakers, un

This volume contains a selection of papers that were originally presented at a workshop "Cross-disciplinary approaches to Information Structure in African languages", held in Porto-Novo, Benin in 2022. Eight papers explore information structure in Niger-Congo languages from different linguistic angles: phonetics, phonology, syntax and semantics. The papers address a range of topics in different Niger- Congo languages from both junior and senior scholars in the field of linguistics, reflecting bo

Humans are confronted everyday with an influx of sounds coming from several sources. In a given auditory environment, some of the sound events might be unexpected, rare, or new. Our cognitive system has the ability to detect such sounds, and consequently activate an attention orienting response. This book provides an in-depth investigation of the interplay between prosody and attention orienting during online speech processing by using two complementary experimental methods, electrophysiology
