Morphemic tone and word tone in central Japanese

In his 1963 paper “Morphemic Tone and Word Tone in Eastern Norwegian”, Jorgen Rischel discusses the lexical representation of morphemic tone and the relation between the tone of (isolated) words and the tone of their constituent morphemes. The overt emphasis is descriptive, but the issues he addresses are of importance to general theoretical linguistics, for they concern the very core of morphophonology in both its structural and generative aspect.
