| adam_text | In a language there are only differences without
positive terms. Whether we take the signified or
the
signifier,
the language contains neither ideas
nor sounds that pre-exist the linguistic system,
but only conceptual differences and phonic
differences issuing from this system.
(From the posthumous Course in
General Linguistics,
1916.)
No one becomes as famous as
Saussure
did without both admirers and detractors
reducing them to readily quotable
paragraphs of ideas, which in turn can be
debated, memorized and examined. One
can argue the ideas expressed above
—
that
language is composed of a system of acoustic
oppositions (the
signifier)
matched by
social convention to a system of conceptual
oppositions (the signified)
—
have in some
sense become
Saussure ,
while the human
being, in all his complexity, has disappeared.
In the first comprehensive study of the life
and work of Ferdinand
de Saussure,
John
Joseph restores the full character and history
of a man who is arguably considered the
father of modern linguistics and whose ideas
have influenced literary· theory, philosophy,
cultural studies, and
virtuali)·
every other
branch of humanities and the social sciences.
Through a far-reaching account of
Saussure
s
life and the time in which he lived, we learn
about the history of Geneva, of Genevan
educational institutions, of linguistics, about
Saussure s ancestry, about his childhood,
his education, the fortunes of his relatives,
and his personal life in ftiris. John Joseph
intersperses all these discussions with
accounts of Saussure s research and the
courses he taught, highlighting the ways in
which knowing about his friendships and
family history can help us understand not
only his thoughts and ideas but also his utter
failure to publish any major work after the
age of twenty-one.
