Abstract
It will seem peculiar to start upon the subject of prosody by talking anecdotally about death. I don’t mean the sombre hooded figure; rather a sense more basic than our mere individual fear of death, however powerful and necessary that may be. My interest is in the form that death gives to our lives.
