Abstract:

It is not unusual for contemporary linguists to claim that "Modern
Linguistics began in 1957" (with the publication of Noam Chomsky's
Syntactic Structures). Some of the essays in Chomskyan
(R)evolutions examine the sources, the nature and the extent of the
theoretical changes Chomsky introduced in the 1950s. Other contributions
explore the key concepts and disciplinary alliances have evolved
considerably over the past sixty years, such as the meanings given
"Universal Grammar", the relationship of Chomskyan linguistics to other
disciplines (Cognitive Science, Psychology, Evolutionary Biology), and the
interactions between mainstream Chomskyan linguistics and other linguistic
theories active in the late 20th century: Functionalism, Generative
Semantics and Relational Grammar. The broad understanding of the recent
history of linguistics points the way towards new directions and methods
that linguistics can pursue in the future.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple 
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
