<br/><br/> Cartesian Linguistics (CL) began as a manuscript written while Noam<br/> Chomsky was a 35-year-old fellow of the American Council of Learned<br/> Societies. An early version of it was prepared for presentation as a Christian<br/> Gauss lecture on Criticism at Princeton University early in 1964. Perhaps<br/> because it proved beyond the audience, it was not delivered, and Chomsky<br/> presented a general lecture on linguistics as understood at the time. The manu<br/>script, however, was revised and published in 1966. An intellectual tour de<br/> force, CL is not an easy text to read, but it is certainly a rewarding one. It is an<br/> unprecedented and– so far– unequalled linguistic–philosophical study of<br/> linguistic creativity and the nature of the mind that is able to produce it.  http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/28
