Syntactic Structures
Syntactic Structures
is a seminal work by Noam Chomsky that introduced the concept of
transformational grammar
, revolutionizing the
field of linguistics
by proposing that the structure of language is rooted in a
universal grammar
inherent to all humans. This work laid the groundwork for
modern linguistic theory
and
cognitive science
, emphasizing the
generative nature of language
and the
deep structures
underlying
surface expressions
.
