Kant's Philosophy of Language
註釋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.
