Abstract
The articles collected in this issue were presented at the Workshop on Prosodic Phrasing in April 2006. The workshop was hosted by the Casa de Convalescència-Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and held in conjunction with the 29th GLOW Colloquium. The meeting proved to be a great success in bringing together scholars from around the world interested in a variety of issues related to prosodic phrasing, such as the relationship between prosody and syntax, the relationship between prosody, intonation and information structure, and the relationship between prosodic structure and pitch accent distribution or rhythmic properties. Also discussed was the question of how prosody is processed, as well as the phonetic modelling of phrasing (i.e., the different phonetic cues to phrasing levels). The eight articles selected for this issue deal with these various aspects from both theoretical and empirical perspectives.
