Abstract
- This contribution proposes an introduction to the development and objectives of biolinguistics, as well as a reflection on its status as a scientific discipline. We show that, in general, the consideration of language as a biological property of our species, and not only as a cultural achievement of it, has had a remarkable effect on the development of linguistic theory, and on its connection with other fields of cognitive science, notably with psycholinguistics. We conclude that, although there is still much to be understood about how the brain processes and stores languages, about how this faculty evolved in our species, and how it develops in each person, the integration of theoretical linguistics and cognitive neuroscience is making us increasingly able to turn those mysteries into empirically tractable problems.
