Serialism

Abstract: Harmonic Grammar and Harmonic Serialism (henceforth HGHS)
consists of thirteen chapters addressing matters of empirical, theoretical,
and typological concern to Harmonic Grammar (HG) and Harmonic Serialism
(HS). As the editors note in their preface, HG and HS are "in some ways
relatives of OT [Optimality Theory] in that they incorporate much of its
structure (e.g. candidate comparison by markedness and faithfulness
constraints)," except that "HS questions the choice of parallel over serial
evaluations, while HG questions the assumption that constraints are ranked
rather than weighted." Anyone interested in an introduction to and further
developments within either HG or HS, or wondering why one would want to
pursue one or the other of these theories rather than their
better-established relative, will be more than profitably occupied by
perusal of the chapters in HGHS.
