B. General and Rational Grammar
General and Rational Grammar is a 17th-century French linguistic treatise from the Port-Royal school that seeks to explain the universal, rational principles underlying all human languages.
C. Syntactic Structures
Syntactic Structures is a landmark 1957 book by linguist Noam Chomsky that revolutionized the study of language by introducing generative grammar and challenging behaviorist views of linguistics.
D. Principles and Parameters Theory
Principles and Parameters Theory is a framework in generative linguistics that explains how universal grammatical principles and language-specific parameter settings account for the diversity and acquisition of human languages.
E. The Logical Syntax of Language
The Logical Syntax of Language is Rudolf Carnap’s seminal 1934 work that systematically develops a formal, logical framework for analyzing the structure and rules of scientific languages, helping to found logical empiricism and modern philosophy of language.
