Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. This book introduces generative grammar as an area of study and asks what it tells us about the human mind. Wolfram Hinzen lays the foundation for the unification of modern generative linguistics with the philosophies of mind and language. He introduces Chomsky's program of a 'minimalist' syntax as a novel explanatory vision of the human mind. He explains how the Minimalist Program originated in work in cognitive science, biology, linguistics, and philosophy, andexamines its implications for work in these fields. He considers the way the human mind is designed when seen as an arrangement of structural patterns in nature, and argues that its design is theproduct not so much of adaptive evolutionary history as of principles and processes that are ahistorical and internalist in character. Linguistic meaning, he suggests, arises in the mind as a consequence of structures emerging on formal rather than functional grounds. From this he substantiates an unexpected and deeply unfashionable notion of human nature. Clearly written in nontechnical language and assuming a limited knowledge of the fields it examines andlinks, Minimal Mind Design will appeal to a wide range of scholars in linguistics, philosophy, and cognitive science. It also provides an exceptionally clear insight into the nature and aims ofChomsky's Minimalist Program. Introduces generative grammar and asks what it tells us about the human mind. This work unites modern generative linguistics with the philosophies of mind and language. It introduces Chomsky's program of a 'minimalist' syntax as a novel explanatory vision of the human mind. It is aimed at scholars in linguistics, philosophy, and cognitive science. This item is printed on demand.
