    Foundation of Language

    A new book by Ray Jackendoff, the influential linguist at Tufts University, a student of Chomsky at MIT. Jackendoff has been collaborated with music scholars to conduct research on music syntax and music cognition. Recently he has been back to linguistics, and he has developed new ways of linguistic studies, stopped applying Chomskian linguistics. Professor Chia-hui Huang of University of Pittsburgh told me about him, which made me wondering, when do we know a methodology produces the perfect understanding of language? Maybe never.
