Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. A good volume for trying to catch up with the current state of Chomsky's thinking on theoretical linguistics (minimalism, Merge, etc), the evolutionary genesis of language, and sundry intellectual matters beyond. There are about 150 pages containing interviews with Chomsky, about 100 pages of interviewer-written appendices, and about 30 pages of interviewer's endnotes ("commentaries"). In at least one of the appendices, interviewer McGilvray can be seen to be quite a "warrior" against non-Chomskyan approaches to matters. (_Plus ça change ..._) As for his endnotes, the page numbers used for keying them to the interviews are, most unfortunately, incorrect). nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Noam Chomsky is one of the most influential thinkers of our time, yet his views are often misunderstood. In this previously unpublished series of interviews, Chomsky discusses his iconoclastic and important ideas concerning language, human nature and politics. In dialogue with James McGilvray, Professor of Philosophy at McGill University, Chomsky takes up a wide variety of topics - the nature of language, the philosophies of language and mind, morality and universality, science and common sense, and the evolution of language. McGilvray's extensive commentary helps make this incisive set of interviews accessible to a variety of readers. The volume is essential reading for those involved in the study of language and mind, as well as anyone with an interest in Chomsky's ideas. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I'll come back to it when I know more about the basics, but right now I can't bridge the distance between myself and the book :'( ( )
