Form and Meaning in Word Formation: A Study of Afrikaans Reduplication
ISBN: 9780521026130 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This study provides a unified analysis of reduplication, a highly complex word formation process, in Afrikaans. Botha concludes that the reduplication principles at work in Afrikaans are not unique to that tongue and, in fact, that they are used by many other languages. Furthermore, Botha shows that neither special conceptual structures nor even standard reduplication procedures are needed to interpret Afrikaans reduplication, thus supporting recent work in cognition by Ray Jackendoff and other scholars. The book's analysis provides concrete illustration of Galilean linguistic inquiry at work...

The Evolutionary Emergence of Language: Evidence and Inference
ISBN: 9780199654857 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The book presents new and stimulating approaches to the study of language evolution and considers their implications for future research. Leading scholars from linguistics, primatology, anthroplogy, and cognitive science consider how language evolution can be understood by means of inference from the study of linked or analogous phenomena in language, animal behaviour, genetics, neurology, culture, and biology. In their introduction the editors show how these approaches can be interrelated and deployed together through their use of comparable forms of inference and the similar conditions they...

Challenging Chomsky : The Generative Garden Game
ISBN: 9780631180272 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study combines a description of the development of Chomsky's theory of linguistics with a satirical account of some of the debates to which it has given rise. It explains how Chomsky's theory fits into the wider study of language, his beliefs about language and mind, and the relation between his linguistic ideas and philosophy, mathematics and the natural sciences. The satirical part of the book describes the challenges to Chomsky's ideas in the context of a metaphorical maze.

Unravelling the Evolution of Language
ISBN: 9780080443188 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What blocks the way to a better understanding of language evolution, it is widely held, is above all a paucity of factual evidence. Not so, argues Unravelling the Evolution of Language. This book finds the main obstacle, instead, in a poverty of a specific kind of theory--restrictive theory. It shows, too, that this poverty of restrictive theory is one of the root causes of the paucity of factual evidence. "Unravelling..".takes it that a theory of a thing T--for example, language--is restrictive if it gives us a basis for distinguishing T in a non-arbitrary way from all things that are...
