Descrizione Impossible Languages
An investigation into the possibility of impossible languages, searching for the indelible "fingerprint” of human language.Can there be such a thing as an impossible human language? A biologist could describe an impossible animal as one that goes against the physical laws of nature (entropy, for example, or gravity). Are there any such laws that constrain languages? In this book, Andrea Moro—a distinguished linguist and neuroscientist—investigates the possibility of impossible languages, searching, as he does so, for the indelible "fingerprint” of human language.
