| Crynodeb: | "Noam Chomsky's revolutionary views on language have been the subject of acrimonious debate among philosophers, psychologists, logicians and linguists since they were first presented in "Syntactic Structures" in 1957. Moreover, Chomsky's theory has been constantly developing, as have the forms of resistance to it. In this lucid and much-needed study, Neil Smith and Deirdre Wilson explain and evaluate Chomsky's major contribution to the study of language and show how various aspects of language may be seen from his perspective. Among other central topics, they cover the acquisition and knowledge of language, language variation and cahange, deep structure, semantics, phonology, linguistic communication and linguistic universals. They discuss recent developments in each area, presentinggg original work of their own, and reserving the right to depart from Chomsky's views where they disagree with them. The copious examples and analyses are an integral part of the text; there is a glossary of unfamiliar terms, and detailed guide to further reading for each chapter." |
