Description
Noam Chomsky's work has had a profound impact on linguistics and our understanding of mind and language. This book presents two new papers by Chomsky, assessing the current state of the field and introducing his 'functional' approach to Universal Grammar.
The articles cover key areas in linguistics and cognitive science, including generative enterprise and syntactic issues in Government and Binding. By reviewing the latest developments and presenting Chomsky's innovative ideas, this book provides a valuable insight into the ongoing evolution of linguistic theory.
