LINGUISTIC AND CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY

Abstract:

Any interpretation of language cannot escape the logical approach. The contrast between the logical perspective and the linguistic one should no longer exist, taking into account the existence of a rationalist grammar, supported by the transformational-generative syntax, thus the generative semantic suggested a natural logic of language. This paper deals with a postmodern grammar which has reshaped its ways of analysing words and sentences, trying to find a logical pattern, mainly based on a matter of meaning-related rules from Rudolph Carnap to Noam Chomsky.

Keywords:

logical grammar, categorial grammar, functional grammar, transformational-generative grammars, cognitive grammar.
