About this listen

 In questa puntata esploriamo il concetto di grammatica universale, partendo dalla celebre formulazione di Noam Chomsky negli anni ’50, per poi intraprendere una panoramica storica che ne rivela radici ben più antiche.
L’idea centrale è che esista una struttura innata e universale nella mente umana che rende possibile l’acquisizione del linguaggio, nonostante le evidenti differenze tra le lingue del mondo. Un concetto spesso attribuito esclusivamente a Chomsky, ma che in realtà affiora in diverse epoche e culture. Scopriremo insieme come molte intuizioni moderne fossero già presenti, in forme embrionali, nel pensiero di filosofi, grammatici e teologi del passato, e quanto la ricerca di una grammatica universale abbia attraversato e influenzato l’intera storia del pensiero occidentale.
