| TITLE: | An Epitaph for Grammar |
||
| DESCRIPTION: | Cognition, Brian & Behavior Colloquium- Fall 2010 Dr. Arthur Reber, Broeklundian Professor, Emeritus Department of Psychology, Brooklyn College, CUNY The study of linguistics and the psychology of language have been dominated for the past forty years by a theoretical vision derived from the theories of Noam Chomsky. This approach is based on a set of presumptions about the formal properties of languages, the process of language acquisition, a particular vision of evolutionary biology, the underlying biological substrates that mediate language and the manner in which linguistic functions interact with other cognitive operations. All of these are wrong. Not just wrong like some messed up sum, but wrong in fundamental ways. I’ll explain why. | ||
