Description: |
This text considers the history of writing in the field of linguistics, focusing first on various topics, then considering historical perspectives on individual scholars, and not-quite-culminating in an interview/conversation with renowned linguist, Noam Chomsky. |
Synopsis: |
The present volume brings together the author's most recent thinking on the tasks and methods of linguistic historiography and his critical assessment of the legacy of a number of major 20th-century scholars. Some of the chapters are revisions of previously published articles, which together with new materials have been welded into a coherent volume. |
