About “Cartesian linguistics”
Cartesian Linguistics: A Chapter in the History of Rationalist Thought is a 1966 book by Noam Chomsky that introduces the term "Cartesian linguistics," referring to the rationalist tradition inspired by René Descartes and other 17th-century thinkers. Chomsky examines the Port-Royal Grammar of 1660 as an example of early rationalist linguistic theory that anticipates aspects of his own work on universal grammar. This third edition includes a new introduction by James McGilvray that situates the work within contemporary academic discourse.
