Foundations of Language: Brain, Meaning, Grammar, EvolutionHow does human language work? How do we put ideas into words that others can understand? Can linguistics shed light on the way the brain operates? Foundations of Language puts linguistics back at the centre of the search to understand human consciousness. Ray Jackendoff begins by surveying the developments in linguistics over the years since Noam Chomsky's Aspects of the Theory of Syntax. He goes on to propose a radical re-conception of how the brain processes language. This opens up vivid new perspectives on every major aspect of language and communication, including grammar, vocabulary, learning, the origins of human language, and how language relates to the real world. Foundations of Language makes important connections with other disciplines which have been isolated from linguistics for many years. It sets a new agenda for close cooperation between the study of language, mind, the brain, behaviour, and evolution. |

For instance, in Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG, Pollard and Sag 1994) , the head falls under the HEAD-DTR (“head-daughter”) attribute, and other constituents fall under the COMP-DTRS (“complement-daughters”) attribute.

For instance, the initial Det in syntax is coindexed with the feature DEF in semantic/ conceptual structure. As with the structures themselves, many aspects of the correspondences notated in Fig. 1.1 are somewhat sketchy and imprecise; ...

For instance, the preposition beside, the head of the PP, maps into the function BESIDE that governs the Place-constituent in Fig. 1.1. In turn, some but not all parts of semantic/conceptual structure correspond to spatial structure—in ...

For instance, it is customary to speak of Fig. 1.1 as part of a symbolic theory of mental representation or of brain function; written symbols such as the phoneme b or the category NP are taken to model “symbols” in the mind.

One can for instance say that Beth knows that every is a Determiner in English, even if she has never heard the term “Determiner” one bases this assertion on Beth's linguistic behavior, including perhaps her grammaticality judgments.
