Resumo: This work discusses upon natural language recursive phenomenon based on a bibliographic research carried out from the studies of Generative Grammar Theory by Noam Chomsky (1957). The notion of recursion is a polemic matter and it has been the subject of a great debate in recent literature (HAUSER, CHOMSKY AND FITCH, 2002; PINKER AND JACKENDOFF, 2005, among others) and there is not a consensus about its definition. It is speculated that the recursive syntactic component is not only to language faculty and, mainly, its universality is questioned. Thus, this research tries to elucidate the problematic issues presented above, starting with an overview of the various deployment that the concept of recursion presents with respect to its treatment in Cognitive Linguistic, making a historical route from Mathematics to language relation, followed by an investigation of the recursive nature of syntax and culminating with the relative recent claims about the centrality of recursion in Biolinguistic context.
