Biography

Peter Reich is recognized among Jewish contributors to Philosophy & Social Sciences — Linguist

How & why

Reich is a linguist associated with the University of Toronto who worked on stratificational (relational-network) grammar, formalizing language as a network of relations rather than a system of rules, and who published the noted 1969 paper 'The Finiteness of Natural Language.' He collaborated on Sydney Lamb's Linguistic Automation Project. Reliable biographical sources do not record his birth details or a Jewish identity; he appears on a subject roster of Jews in linguistics.
