Abstract

The fundamental structures of human logical thought are closely related to certain neurological regions of the brain and other parts of the human (and even animal, according to some research) brain. This article tries to explore the possibility of attributing the processing of certain logical-linguistic structures of human cognitive activity, based on certain empirical data and theoretical arguments from different scientific and philosophical fields. Based on the analogy established between linguistic and logical particles, as well as between thought and language, in addition to the results found in the research on language disorders due to brain injury (aphasias), some hypotheses for the location of the structures are proposed. Fundamental logics (classes vs. functors) in certain neurological circuits present in the human brain, as well as in other areas related to linguistic, executive and sensory-motor functions, fundamentally.
