In contrast to high-modern linguists like Saussure, Sapir, Bloomfield, each of whom Joseph demonstrates engaging in both these operations, Chomsky cleverly avoids the above fallacy: he creates an atavistic, not a modernist, aporia, aligning his heroes and himself with not an inch of ironic distance between them. But the strenght of his narrative is, as has been amply proven, also its downfall, as several generations of scholars from Salmon to Aarsleff to Robin Lakoff to Searle have beat Chomskyan linguistics bloody and kicked it while it was down. Tongue perhaps partially but certainly not fully in cheek, Joseph notes that in the thoroughness of their victory they really did Chomsky a favour: bereft to a great degree of his chosen ancestors, he went on to make himself sui generis, the magister figure a-borning, or a-bootstrapping, generative grammar style from inside his own skull.
