Frege in the Flesh: Biolinguistics and the Neural Enforcement of Syntactic Structures

arXiv CS.CL

ArXi:2604.00291v1 Announce Type: new Biolinguistics is the interdisciplinary scientific study of the biological foundations, evolution, and genetic basis of human language. It treats language as an innate biological organ or faculty of the mind, rather than a cultural tool, and it challenges a behaviorist conception of human language acquisition as being based on stimulus-response associations. Extracting its most essential component, it takes seriously the idea that mathematical, algebraic models of language capture something natural about the world.
