Abstract

This volume consists of a subset of the papers presented at a workshop on Prosodic Morphology which took place in June 1994 at the Research Institute for Language and Speech at Utrecht University.We wish to acknowledge the helpful comments of Colin Wilson and Rachel Walker, neither of whom should accept any responsibility for any remaining errors or unreadability. There are two main themes that hold the volume together; the first and most obvious theme is the interface between morphology and phonology/prosody, and the second is the use of Optimality Theory (OT; Prince & Smolensky 1993) to analyse aspects of this interface. We comment on the individual chapters of the volume in § 2 below, and offer some general concluding remarks in § 3.
