Tsuruoka is a great karate man in Canada.
I was excited about a book written about Tsuruoka Sensei, but was really expecting to see more information about his Sensei, Dr. Critose Tsuyoshi, who I consider a one of the last generations of great masters.
In fact, some of the only information about Chitose himself centered around the split between Tsuruoka Sensei and Chitose Sensei which placed what I considered a dark shadow over their entire student/teacher relationship (as one side of a bad breakup always does) and something probably best left out of the book altogether.

This paper is an attempt to reconsider the accentual system of Tsuruoka Japanese, which has long attracted a number of linguists' attention, and discusses its implications for the current development of phonological theory: Optimality Theory (OT).
On the basis of the detailed analysis of tonal and accentual phenomena of Tsuruoka Japanese, a number of theoretical implications for and against OT are discussed.
It is suggested that in order to account for these phenomena dependent on the ordering of rules, we will have to reconsider at least in part one of the basic tenets of OT: No Derivation.
