His thought has had a profound impact upon the philosophy of language, mind, and science, as well as the interdisciplinary field of cognitive science which his work helped to establish. Now, in this new \u003ci\u003eCompanion\u003c\/i\u003e dedicated to his substantial body of work and the range of its influence, an international assembly of prominent linguists, philosophers, and cognitive scientists reflect upon the interdisciplinary reach of Chomsky’s intellectual contributions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBalancing theoretical rigor with accessibility to the non-specialist, the \u003ci\u003eCompanion\u003c\/i\u003e is organized into eight sections—including the historical development of Chomsky’s theories and the current state of the art, comparison with rival usage-based approaches, and the relation of his generative approach to work on linguistic processing, acquisition, semantics, pragmatics, and philosophy of language. Later chapters address Chomsky’s rationalist critique of behaviorism and related empiricist approaches to psychology, as well as his insistence upon a “Galilean” methodology in cognitive science. Following a brief discussion of the relation of his work in linguistics to his work on political issues, the book concludes with an essay written by Chomsky himself, reflecting on the history and character of his work in his own words. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA significant contribution to the study of Chomsky’s thought, \u003ci\u003eA Companion to Chomsky\u003c\/i\u003e is an indispensable resource for philosophers, linguists, psychologists, advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and general readers with interest in Noam Chomsky’s intellectual legacy as one of the great thinkers of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Notes on Contributors ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Synoptic Introduction 1\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eNicholas Allott, Terje Lohndal, and Georges Rey\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Biographical Sketch 18\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eNicholas Allott, Terje Lohndal, and Georges Rey\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I Historical Development of Linguistics 23\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 From the Origins of Government and Binding to the Current State of Minimalism 25\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eArtemis Alexiadou and Terje Lohndal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 The Enduring Discoveries of Generative Syntax 52\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eLisa Lai-Shen Cheng and James Griffiths\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 The Chomsky Hierarchy 74\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eTim Hunter\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e6 Naturalism, Internalism, and Nativism: \u003cwhat\u003e The Legacy of \u003ci\u003eThe Sound Pattern of English\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cshould be\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/should\u003e\u003c\/what\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eCharles Reiss and Veno Volenec\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e7 Language as a Branch of Psychology: Chomsky and Cognitive Science 109\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eLila Gleitman\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II Contemporary Issues in Syntax 123\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e8 The Architecture of the Computation 125\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eDavid Adger\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e9 Merge and Features: The Engine of Syntax 140\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003ePeter Svenonius\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e10 On Chomsky’s Legacy in the Study of Linguistic Diversity 158\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eMark Baker\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e11 Parameters and Linguistic Variation 172\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eMichelle Sheehan\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e12 Constraints on Grammatical Dependencies 190\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eGereon Müller\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e13 Chomsky’s Influence on Historical Linguistics: From Universal Grammar to Third Factors 210\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eElly van Gelderen\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e14 Second Language Acquisition 222\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eRoumyana Slabakova\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e15 Multilingualism and Chomsky’s Generative Grammar 232\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eTanja Kupisch, Sergio Miguel Pereira Soares, Eloi Puig-Mayenco, and Jason Rothman\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III Comparisons with other Frameworks 243\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e16 The View from Declarative Syntax 245\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003ePeter Sells\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e17 How Statistical Learning Can Play Well with Universal Grammar 267\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eLisa S.
