Abstract The ‘Biolinguistics’ program seeks to establish specific neuroanatomical models corresponding to the representations and operations characterizing the species-specific language faculty in human beings. Yet after decades of research, no neural structures corresponding to specific linguistic structures, rules, constraints or ...

The Biolinguistics Program is an emergent interdisciplinary field encompassing natural sciences, neurosciences and the humanities. Its core object of inquiry is human language. The overarching questions it raises are the following: what is language and what is the relation between language and biology.

This book investigates the nature of human language and its importance for the study of the mind. In particular, it examines current work on the biology of language. Lyle Jenkins reviews the evidence that language is best characterized by a generative grammar of the kind introduced by Noam Chomsky in the 1950s and developed in various directions since ...

Linguistic Variation Yearbook, 2006
For the last half-century, biolinguistics, the study of the biology of language, has focused on the classical “what” and “how” questions in biology: (1) What is knowledge of language?, (2) How does language develop in the child? and (3) How does language evolve in the species?

Language acquisition from a biolinguistic perspective
Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2017This paper describes the biolinguistic approach to language acquisition. We contrast the biolinguistic approach with a usage-based approach. We argue that the biolinguistic approach is superior because it provides more accurate and more extensive generalizations about the properties of human languages, as well as a better account of how children ...

The Update of the Biolinguistic Agenda
2016This chapter is devoted to the reconstruction of the criticisms and internal reviews of Chomskyan biolinguistics. In particular, it deals with Balari and Lorenzo’s positions, who support the often extreme acceptance of the Evo-Devo, and those of Cedric Boeckx. The latter, especially, deeply reflects the need for the pre-existence of the lexicon so that
