This skillfully crafted work...combines acute theoretical insight, deep understanding of a wide variety of typologically different languages, and impressive lucidity. It is a wonderful and valuable achievement."--Noam Chomsky. Whether all human languages are fundamentally the same or different has been a subject of debate for ages. This problem has deep philosophical implications: If languages are all the same, it implies a fundamental commonality--and thus mutual intelligibility--of human thought. We are now on the verge of solving this problem. Using a twenty-year-old theory proposed by the world's greatest living linguist, Noam Chomsky, researchers have found that the similarities among languages are more profound than the differences. Languages whose grammars seem completely incompatible may in fact be structurally almost identical, except for a difference in one simple rule. The discovery of these rules and how they may vary promises to yield a linguistic equivalent of the Periodic Table of the Elements: a single framework by which we can understand the fundamental structure of all human language. This is a landmark breakthrough both within linguistics, which will herewith finally become a full-fledged science, and in our understanding of the human mind.
語言學書籍,以擬語言以化學的手段,闡述Chomsky的理論
評分Baker全書用類比寫齣來,是想達到通俗科普的效果,不過絕對是超級硬核的科普,感覺這本書的內容相當於很多篇句法論文和專著,head parameter, verb movement, polysynthesis parameter,null subject核心大問題以及其他參數都討論瞭,還討論瞭習得、曆史演變、和最為根本的語言或者參數進化的原因,最後一章why parameter很好看!讓我想起瞭要區分對待現象世界和事物的原理,桌子和能做齣穩定桌子所用到的數學原理是兩碼事,語言的交際功能和語言內在的原理也要區分。Baker是神仙作者,聰明知識麵巨廣,小幽默也是躍然紙上,用recipe類比也是對他叫烤箱的一個自嘲吧。喜歡理論語言學的原因就是很多事情的本質根本不是看到或者以為的那樣,就很驚喜。
評分語言學 8/100 All about parameters P.62 "Linguistics now seems to be in a stage similar in many ways to where chemistry was in the mid-nineteenth century, just prior to Mendeleyev. The key theoretical idea of the parameter is in place, together with an appreciation of how it can be used to solve linguistic problems."
