With broad coverage of the entire field, this volume combines linguistic and speech technology approaches and offers hands-on guidance alongside detailed descriptions of analytic techniques in speech prosody as well as software for automatic analysis.

This book presents the author's personal overview of Speech Prosody, and in particular the different areas in which he has been especially interested over the last few decades. These include the acoustics of speech prosody, prosodic transcription, the relationship between lexical and non-lexical prosody, the nature of prosodic structure, the phonology of prosody, the modeling of rhythm and of melody, and the central question of the various and at times quite mysterious ways in which prosody contributes to the interpretation of an utterance. In a final chapter the author briefly outlines the directions which he believes may prove the most productive and fruitful for future work in the field of Speech Prosody.

Daniel Hirst has been working in the field of speech prosody and phonology for over fifty years. Currently Emeritus Research Director for the CNRS in Aix-en-Provence, he has published numerous articles/chapters in several major journals/international volumes and has edited a major study of the intonation of languages of the world (Hirst & Di Cristo (eds) 1998 Intonation Systems: a Survey of Twenty Languages), published by Cambridge University Press.He has developed software for the automatic analysis of speech prosody (Momel, Intsint, ProZed), implemented as plugins for the Praat speech analysis software, which are freely available, together with most of his publications from: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Daniel_Hirst/research__;!!NLFGqXoFfo8MMQ!sQqmZNP4AANRNccFr8GND0U5PdCSH1LCXPVrN1FxogsnEFpUT2kgEy75CZREUcFST3V9UGQBm7zkb_uZ8Q$
In 2000, he founded SProSIG, a special interest group for the study of speech prosody, under the aegis of ISCA, the International Speech Communication Association and IPA, the International Phonetic Association.
In 2002, he organised the first International Conference on Speech Prosody, in Aix en Provence, France.
Since then, the Conference has been held regularly every two years in Europe, Asia, North and South America,
The next conference will be in the Netherlands (Leiden) in 2024.
In 2013, he was elected fellow of ISCA and in 2014 member of the Permanent Council for the Organisation of ICPhS, the international Congress of Phonetic Sciences.
In 2018, he was elected ISCA distinguished lecturer for 2018-2019, for which he travelled to Indonesia (Bandung), Singapore, Iran (Qazvin and Shahrekord) and China (Beijing, Shanghai, Changsha and Xi'an) giving lectures and tutorials.
