The Prosody of Public Speech - A Description of a Project
Eva Strangert, Thierry Deschamps · KTH Publication Database DiVA (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) · 2009
The project concerns prosodic aspects of public speech. A specific goal is to characterize skilled speakers. To that end, acoustic analyses will be combined with subjective ratings of speaker characteristics. The project has a bearing on how speech, and prosody in particular, can be adjusted to the communicative situation, especially by speakers in possession of a rich expressive repertoire.
