The Responsibility of Intellectuals
With the publication of ‘The Responsibility of Intellectuals’ half a century ago, Noam Chomsky burst onto the US political scene as a leading critic of the war in Vietnam. Privilege, he argues, brings with it the responsibility to tell the truth and expose lies, but our intellectual culture only pays lip-service to this ideal. The essay has been described as ‘the single most influential piece of anti-war literature’ of the Vietnam War period. Sin…

Language Acquisition: Studies in First Language Development
Consistency, markedness and language change: On the notion ‘consistent language’
To avoid the triviality of mere taxonomy in which languages are classified by such arbitrary criteria as ‘is/is not tonal’, ‘does/does not have unbounded movement rules’, ‘has prefixes/suffixes’, etc., language typology needs to be able to make implicational statements of the sort usually associated with the name of Greenberg. 1 For instance, one wants to be able to say of a language not only that it is VSO, but also that it THEREFORE will have p…

Lexical and Grammatical Impairment in Dysphasia
The relative incidence of lexical and grammatical errors in oral reading was studied in three experiments on a group of twenty-eight dysphasic patients. In the first, lexical items were presented in isolation, in groups and in clauses; in the second and third, lexical and grammatical items were presented in isolation and embedded in continuous prose. Although no conclusive evidence was found of independent breakdown of lexical and grammatical fun…
