<span class="SpellE">address</span> the relation <span class="SpellE">between</span> <span class="SpellE">core</span>
<span class="SpellE">knowledge</span>, <span class="SpellE">language</span>,
music, and culture, <span class="SpellE">with</span> a <span class="SpellE">view</span> to <span class="SpellE">assessing</span>
the <span class="SpellE">current</span> <span class="SpellE">understanding</span>
of <span class="SpellE">these</span> questions for a <span class="SpellE">theory</span> of the <span class="SpellE">mind</span>/<span class="SpellE">brain</span>. <span class="SpellE">We</span>
<span class="SpellE">hope</span> <span class="SpellE">that</span>
the participants – <span class="SpellE">scholars</span> <span class="SpellE">from</span> <span class="SpellE">fields</span>
as diverse as <span class="SpellE">psychology</span>, <span class="SpellE">linguistics</span>, <span class="SpellE">neurobiology</span>,
<span class="SpellE">neurolinguistics</span>, music cognition,
and cognitive <span class="SpellE">anthropology</span> – <span class="SpellE">will</span> <span class="SpellE">contribute</span>
to <span class="SpellE">defining</span> a <span class="SpellE">research</span> program <span class="SpellE">that</span>
<span class="SpellE">may</span> <span class="SpellE">address</span>
<span class="SpellE">both</span> new and as <span class="SpellE">yet</span> <span class="SpellE">unresolved</span>
<span class="SpellE">research</span> questions in <span class="SpellE">this</span> area. <o></o></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: rgb(0, 51,

<span class="SpellE">is</span> <span class="SpellE">puzzling</span>
<span class="SpellE">that</span> a notion <span class="SpellE">such</span> as <span class="SpellE"><i>recursion</i></span> (and the <span class="SpellE">cognate</span> notions of <span class="SpellE"><i>Merge</i></span><i> </i>or<i> <span class="SpellE">successor</span> <span class="SpellE">function</span></i>) <span class="SpellE">seems</span>
to <span class="SpellE">play</span> a <span class="SpellE">role</span>
in <span class="SpellE">apparently</span> <span class="SpellE">unrelated</span> <span class="SpellE">domains</span>
<span class="SpellE">such</span> as <span class="SpellE">number</span>/<span class="SpellE">arithmetics</span>, <span class="SpellE">language</span>,
and music. <span class="SpellE">Both</span> <span class="SpellE">linguistic</span> and <span class="SpellE">nonlinguistic</span>
quantification <span class="SpellE">seem</span> to <span class="SpellE">be</span> <span class="SpellE">built</span>
on <span class="SpellE">shared</span> primitives. <span class="SpellE">Such</span> issues are <span class="SpellE">often</span>
<span class="SpellE">related</span><span> </span>to
the (dis<span class="GramE">)<span class="SpellE">similarity</span></span>
or (dis)<span class="SpellE">continuity</span> <span class="SpellE">between</span> the animal and the <span class="SpellE">human</span> <span class="SpellE">domain</span>.
The question arises <span class="SpellE">whether</span> <span class="SpellE">core</span> <span class="SpellE">knowledge</span>
of <span class="SpellE">number</span> <span class="SpellE">constitutes</span>
an <span class="SpellE">intriguing</span> exception to the <span class="SpellE">discontinuity</span> <span class="SpellE">thesis</span>,
<span class="SpellE">with</span> <span class="SpellE">potential</span>
ramifications for the <span class="SpellE">representation</span>
of time and <span class="SpellE">space</span> in the spirit
of Kant.<o></o></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: rgb(0, 51,

<span class="SpellE">We</span> <span class="SpellE">believe</span>
