This volume presents current work on a topic in Romance linguistics
that still informs linguistic theory to this day: metaphony in the
languages of Italy. Papers discuss fundamental research topics such
as phonological opacity in the light of chain shifts, post-tonic
harmony and consonant transparency, the role of morphosyntax in the
typology of metaphony, the explanatory adequacy of feature-based
versus element-based analyses, and the locus of metaphony in
grammar. Other chapters present new experimental data, thus
building a more accurate empirical foundation for the study of
metaphony. We envision the volume to become a reference book not
only for an updated descriptive survey of metaphonic patterns in
Italy but also a thorough discussion of the challenges that
metaphony poses for different (morpho)phonological theories. The
book bridges the gap between descriptive works and theoretical
thinking in the study of metaphony.
