Please, can you name another person in history who is comparable to Noam Chomsky?

I asked this as part of another question about Noam Chomsky, but I got no answers (to this comparable person issue) in the 11 answers I have so far received. I am trying again.

Please, can you name another person in history who is comparable to Noam Chomsky?
