Kant's Philosophy of Language: Chomskyan Linguistics and Its Kantian Roots


Add your own review!

Overview

"This volume demonstrates the incontestability of the historical, as well as conceptual, linkage between the theory of generative/transformational/universal grammar associated with Noam Chomsky and the philosophical synthesis achieved by Immanual Kant in the ""Critique of Pure Reason"". Specifically, it also traces a clear line of theoretical development regarding that topic from the ""Essay on Language"" by J.G. Herder; through the massive contribution of Kant in the ""Critique"", to the pioneering terms of W. von Humboldt in ""On the Structural Difference of Human Language"" and, hence, to its computer-age culmination at the hands of Chomsky."
