Ferdinand de Saussure (1857–1913) was a Swiss linguist and semiotician whose work laid the foundation for many modern fields of linguistic study and semiotics. He is best known for his contributions to structural linguistics, particularly through his seminal work, "Course in General Linguistics," which was published posthumously in 1916 based on notes from his students.
