马克思与乔姆斯基语言观的比较研究

A Contrastive Study of Chomsky and Marx's Views on Language

乔姆斯基和马克思都试图探索人的语言能力,揭开人类思维感知和认识世界的奥秘,但两者的语言观存在很大差异.乔姆斯基强调语言是天赋的、本能的,具有心理性、生物性和递归性,而马克思则认为语言是人类实践活动的产物,具有实践性、物质性、社会历史性和科学性.马克思的语言观深刻揭示了语言与实践、语言与思想、语言与社会历史的关系,不仅为语言研究指明了方向,而且为当代社会实践提供了现实指导.

Both Chomsky and Marx sought to explore the linguistic capacities in the human brain and unravel the mysteries of how the human mind perceives and knows the world,but their descriptions of their views of lan-guage differ greatly.Chomsky emphasized that language is innate,instinctive,psychological,biological and re-cursive,while Marx believed that language is a product of human practical activity,practical,material and socio-historical and scientific in nature.Marx's view of language profoundly reveals the relationship between lan-guage and practice,language and thought,and language and social history,which not only points out the direc-tion for language research,but also provides practical guidance for contemporary social practice.
