This work presents a concise report of the original research on the human voice by Emil Sutro. Starting with discovering the dual nature of the voice, the writer of this book paved the way for understanding the mystery of man's dual character in all respects. He explains how the voice has been treated as a separate mechanical issue for the longest time, while it is the outcome of both physical and spiritual matters. This work was composed after years of extensive research, and it contains statements and facts that are shocking and revolutionary. Contents include: Introduction The Human Voice Impression—expression Our Mother Tongue Nationality and Race Distinctions Physiology of Voice in Relation to Words

Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,3, University of Freiburg, language: English, abstract: The present paper is concerned with the interfaces between the verbal categories of aktionsart and voice. Despite the fact that aktionsarten have been known since antiquity, there still seems to be a certain amount of both terminological and conceptual confusion with respect to aktionsarten. A general definition most linguists can agree on involves the notion that aktionsart (which in most publications is referred to as lexical aspect) basically represents an immanent property of the verb assigning temporal information to a given lexical item. Lexical aspect differs from grammatical aspect in that it is restricted to verb semantics; neither does it include subdivisions based on conjugated forms of a verb, nor does it take into account the syntactico-semantic processes found on the sentential level.
