Description: Introducing Chomsky by John Maher, Judy Groves Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Compact INTRODUCING guide to the seminal linguist and irrepressible critic of right-wing America. Publisher Description Lucid, witty and exact. New Statesman. Linguist Noam Chomsky maintains that the human brain has an innate language faculty, and that part of this biological endowment is a universal grammar, a theory of principles common to all languages. Thus, all human languages and the ways in which children learn them are remarkably similar. Chomskys book Syntactic Structures was a turning-point in 20th-century linguistics, challenging assumptions in many areas such as philosophy, psychology and intellectual history. Heir to the Enlightenment tradition, Chomsky has introduced new perspectives on language, the creative individual and the nature of human freedom in society. Introducing Chomsky traces Chomskys understanding of the cognitive realities involved in the use of language, and the technical apparatus needed to represent it. The book also describes Chomskys radical critique of the institutions of power and the pathways of oppression, and his commitment to freedom and justice. Author Biography John Maher is Professor of Linguistics at the International Christian University in Tokyo.
