Representation of Language

In "Representation of Language," author Georges Rey provides a compelling philosophical defense of Noam Chomsky's influential theory that human language is an internal, innate computational system. Published by Oxford University Press in 2020, this thought-provoking hardback spans 478 pages and delves into the complexities of language representation. Rey not only champions Chomsky's perspective but also critically examines various problematic developments associated with the concepts of innateness, ontology, and intentionality. This book is essential for anyone interested in the intersections of philosophy and linguistics, illuminating key interdisciplinary issues that shape our understanding of language. Whether you are a student, scholar, or simply a curious reader, "Representation of Language" offers rich insights into the philosophical foundations of linguistic theory.
