本论文讨论的是法兰克语中所谓的“B 规则区域”中的声调重音对立。规则 B 以其调性旋律的反转而闻名：1921 年，阿道夫·巴赫 (Adolf Bach) 发表了对阿尔茨巴赫口音的描述，指出阿茨巴赫的调性旋律与该地区其他地区的调性旋律表现出反转（规则 A）。手头的研究不仅提供了关于规则 B 的重要但迄今缺失的经验数据，而且还提出了对该现象的共时和历时类型学分析。
新收集的阿尔茨巴赫方言语音数据显示，阿尔茨巴赫方言的重音在宣示时颠倒了，但在审问时却没有颠倒，它们与规则 A 的轮廓非常相似。这一重要的观察结果迄今为止尚未被报道。
基于这些发现，对阿尔茨巴赫语和其他三种法兰克方言的详细同步自动音段分析表明，我们可以将声调重音对立理解为两种口音的不同脚部结构之一。论文的历时部分探讨了规则B中半反转音调轮廓的起源。它认为规则B和规则A是从共同的前身发展而来的，但以不同的方式适应了非口音方言的声明旋律。
This thesis deals with the tone accent opposition in the so-called “Rule B area” in Franconian. Rule B is known for its reversal of tonal melodies: in 1921, Adolf Bach published a description of the Arzbach accents, stating that the tonal melodies in Arzbach display a reversal of those in the rest of the area (Rule A). The study at hand not only provides crucial but as yet missing empirical data on Rule B but also suggests synchronic and diachronic typological analyses of the phenomenon.
Newly gathered phonetic data from the Arzbach dialect show that the tone accents in Arzbach are reversed in declaration but not in interrogation, where they strongly resemble the Rule A contours. This important observation was unreported so far.
On the basis of these findings, detailed synchronic autosegmental analyses for Arzbach and three other Franconian dialects show that we can understand the tone accent opposition as one of different foot structures for the two accents. The diachronic section of the thesis explores the origin of the semi-reversed tonal contours in Rule B. It argues that Rule B and Rule A developed out of a common predecessor but adapted in different ways to declaration melodies from non-accent dialects.
