This is the new and improved 2020 Deluxe Edition of Paul Meier’s book, the industry standard on accents and dialects of the English language. This easy-to-follow yet incredibly detailed 426-page, perfect-bound, printed book offers three more dialects than the old edition and, for the first time, delivers the sound files by streaming audio to any internet-connected device, instead of CDs. (Streaming instructions are on the inside back cover.) You get the same proven system of instruction as in the old edition, plus a lot more – for less money. Paul Meier is a leading dialect coach for theatre and film, and contained in this impressive publication is his entire standard repertoire of 27 of the most valuable accents and dialects for actors: Afrikaans (South Africa), American Deep South (Mississippi/Georgia/Alabama), American Southern (Mid-South), Australian, Birmingham (England), Cockney, Downeast New England, Estuary (a modern British dialect), French, General American, German, Hampshire, Indian, Irish, Italian, Jamaican, Liverpool, New York, Northern Ireland, Russian, Scottish, South Boston, Spanish (Castilian & Colonial), Standard British English (Received Pronunciation), Welsh, Yiddish, and Yorkshire. Coaching many famous actors (Tobey Maguire, Tom Wilkinson, Mark Ruffalo, etc.), Meier has also taught dialects at RADA, LAMDA, Webber-Douglas, NC School of the Arts, and other famous institutions in the UK and USA. In addition to his user-friendly practice material, for each dialect Paul coaches you in two monologues (one male and one female) from a well-known play or film, and links you to hundreds of online recordings of native speakers on his International Dialects of English Archive (IDEA). Further enhancing the value are his IPA phonetics charts, plus information on his show-specific recordings for plays and musicals, Shakespeare instruction, accent reduction, and Zoom/Skype coaching. Easy enough for the beginner, rigorous enough for the experienced professional.
