In depth difficult read for those without a background in linguistics but it’s an IMPORTANT book about the subject of HOW we humans learn languages. ( ) I am on tour with the Immaculate Machine! Reviews will be short for the foreseeable future! This is actually two books! the first one is conversations with a French linguist named Mitsou Ronat that are interesting but would be more pointful to the layman if they came after the other book! That book is a discussion of his "generative grammar" theory that is also interesting and true as far as it goes in an airy way! But his dismissal of descriptive linguistics as "taxonomy" is crap, gets in the way of what linguists do best, and does kinda make him, as Languagehat says, the "dark prince of linguistics."

HTML:The two most popular titles by the noted linguist and critic in one volumeâ??an ideal introduction to his work. On Language features some of Noam Chomsky's most informal and highly accessible work. In Part I, Language and Responsibility, Chomsky presents a fascinating self-portrait of his political, moral, and linguistic thinking. In Part II, Reflections on Language, Chomsky explores the more general implications of the study of language and offers incisive analyses of the controversies among psychologists, philosophers, and linguists over fundamental questions of language. "Language and Responsibility is a well-organized, clearly written and comprehensive introduction to Chomsky's thought." â??The New York Times Book Review "Language and Responsibility brings together in one readable volume Chomsky's positions on issues ranging from politics and philosophy of science to recent advances in linguistic theory. . . . The clarity of presentation at times approaches that of Bertrand Russell in his political and more popular philosophical essays." â??Contemporary Psychology "Reflections on Language is profoundly satisfying and impressive. It is the clearest and most developed account of the case of universal grammar and of the relations between his theory of language and the innate faculties of mind responsible for language acquisition and use." â??Patri No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
