On Language: Chomsky's Classic Works Language and Responsibility and Reflections on Language in One Volume

Description

This volume brings together two of Noam Chomsky’s influential works on the nature of language, human freedom, and the responsibilities of intellectual inquiry. Through wide-ranging conversations with Mitsou Ronat and a focused examination of linguistic theory, Chomsky explores how language reflects the structure of the mind while challenging conventional assumptions about communication, knowledge, and society. He also considers the ethical and political implications of scientific research, connecting the study of language to questions of power, education, and human possibility. Clear, provocative, and foundational, the collection offers an accessible introduction to Chomsky’s ideas and their enduring significance in modern linguistics and critical thought.
