Minimalism has spawned in linguistics an entire research program, despite being fundamentally misguided, according to distinguished linguist and philosopher of language Pieter Seuren. Seuren's accessible and spirited attack argues that the Minimalist Program is deeply flawed. Seuren points to the original acrimonious split in the 1960's and 1970's between Chomsky's generative grammar and the alternative generative semantics proposed by his followers, and argues that the latter theory was sounder and unfairly suppressed. Seuren maintains that this suppression, and the cult surrounding Chomsky and Minimalism more generally, has done great damage to linguistics by impairing open discussion of empirical issues and excluding valid alternatives. 606 $aMinimalist theory (Linguistics) 606 $aGenerative grammar 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMinimalist theory (Linguistics) 615 0$aGenerative grammar. 676 $a415/.0182 700 $aSeuren$b Pieter A.
