It employs an autosegmental-metrical model of intonation to investigate the marking of aspects of information structure, concentrating on the Given-New dimension. It begins with an overview of the state of the art in the areas of intonation and information structure, and, since the term 'Givenness' has been used in the literature in diverging ways, provides a model of 'Givenness proper', focusing on the cognitive states of discourse referents, and how these states are expressed through the choice of words and their prosody. The empirical evidence provided here is based on German. It comprises the analysis of a read corpus and two perception experiments which show that the dichotomy of 'accented' versus 'unaccented' corresponding to 'New' versus 'Given' information is inadequate. In fact, there is evidence that a range of pitch accent types (including deaccentuation) can be mapped onto the gradient scale of Givenness degrees, with the pitch height on the accented syllable being the determining factor. 410 0$aLinguistische Arbeiten (Max Niemeyer Verlag) ;$v508. 606 $aIntonation (Phonetics) 606 $aGerman language$xIntonation 606 $aDiscourse analysis 606 $aSemantics 606 $aPragmatics 606 $aCognition 615 0$aIntonation (Phonetics) 615 0$aGerman language$xIntonation. 615 0$aDiscourse analysis. 615 0$aSemantics. 615 0$aPragmatics. 615 0$aCognition. 676 $a197 686 $aGC 6400$2rvk 700 $aBaumann$b Stefan$0563945 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818242403321 996 $aThe intonation of givenness$93912761 997 $aUNINA
