1. Sean Hanrahan, Morphology: Morphologically Governed Accent Theory in Optimality, by John D. Alderete

John D. Alderete, Swarthmore College, MORPHOLOGICALLY
GOVERNED ACCENT THEORY IN OPTIMALITY

Alderete examines the influences of morphological factors
on stress and pitch accent within Optimality Theory. He argues
that two developments in the theory of faithfulness
constraints define a typology of morpho-accentual processes.
