Have a look at the paper "Monadic Parser Combinators" by Graham Hutton and 
Erik Meijer. To quote from the paper:
"In functional programming, a popular approach to building recursive
descent parsers is to model parsers as functions, and to define
higher-order functions (or 'combinators') that implement grammar
constructions such as sequencing, choice and repetition."
