Origins of Language: A Slim Guide
ISBN: 9780198701880 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Origins of Language: A Slim Guide offers a concise and accessible overview of what is known about the evolution of the human capacity for language. Non-human animals communicate in simple ways: they may be able to form simple concepts, to feel some limited empathy for others, to cooperate to some extent, and to engage in mind-reading. Human language, however, is characterized by its ability to efficiently express a wide range of subtle and complex meanings. After the first simple beginnings, human language underwent an explosion of complexity, leading to the very complicated systems of...

The Linguistic Theory of Numerals
ISBN: 9780521133685 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Originally published in 1975, this was the first detailed linguistic study of natural language numeral systems. It draws on two quite different scholarly traditions. The first is carried on by anthropologists and others compiling and cataloguing data on the different counting-systems of the world. The second explores generative grammar, which analyses the universal features and the formal organisation of these numeral systems. Dr Hurford is able to extend and modify the detailed theory of generative grammar by testing it against this material and discovering the rules, conventions and...

Grammar: A Student's Guide
ISBN: 9780521456272 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This introductory guide to grammar explains one hundred basic grammatical terms. A knowledge of such terms, and how they interconnect, is crucial for an understanding of the structure and function of language. The explanations are listed alphabetically for easy reference, like a dictionary, but offer much more than a simple definition. Each entry is divided into sections, providing a clear explanation, examples, exercises, and highlighting the main contrasts and interrelationships between the terms. Clearly written and easy to use, this book will be an invaluable source of information for...

The Origins of Meaning
ISBN: 9780199207855 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this, the first of two ground-breaking volumes on the nature of language in the light of the way it evolved, James Hurford looks at how the world first came to have a meaning in the minds of animals and how in humans this meaning eventually came to be expressed as language. He reviews a mass of evidence to show how close some animals, especially primates and more especially apes, are to the brink of human language. Apes may not talk to us but they construct rich cognitive representations of the world around them, and here, he shows, are the evolutionary seeds of abstract thought - the...

Approaches to the Evolution of Language: Social and Cognitive Bases
ISBN: 9780521639644 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is one of the first systematic attempts to bring language within the neo-Darwinian framework of modern evolutionary theory. Twenty-four coordinated essays by linguists, phoneticians, anthropologists, psychologists and cognitive scientists explore the origins of the complex structure of human language, emphasizing its social (as opposed to purely practical) bases, and showing the mechanisms by which this structure emerges, is maintained, and develops.

The Origins of Grammar: Language in the Light of Evolution II
ISBN: 9780199207879 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 768 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the second of the two closely linked but self-contained volumes that comprise James Hurford's acclaimed exploration of the biological evolution of language. In the first book he looked at the evolutionary origins of meaning, ending as our distant ancestors were about to step over the brink to modern language. He now considers how that step might have been taken and the consequences it undoubtedly had.
The capacity for language lets human beings formulate and express an unlimited range of propositions about real or fictitious worlds. It allows them to communicate these...

Self-Organization in the Evolution of Speech
ISBN: 9780199289158 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Oudeyer combines insights from neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and linguistics to explore questions about the origins of speech. He puts forward the startling proposal that speech can be spontaneously generated by the coupling of evolutionarily simple neural structures connecting perception and production. He tests this hypothesis through a computational system and shows that the linking of auditory and vocal motor neural nets produces syntactic rules that exhibit the fundamental properties of modern human speech systems. This fascinating account will interest all those interested in the...
