Autorenporträt
Francesco Cangemi (1983) studied Literature and Philology in Naples and Zurich, completing his undergraduate studies with a dissertation on vowel systems in southern Italian dialects. After receiving his PhD in Linguistics from Aix-Marseille University with a thesis on underspecification in prosodic categories, he is currently working as a post-doc researcher in Cologne, focussing on the encoding and decoding of linguistic prominence.
