Ferdinand de Saussure (1857 - 1913)

Ferdinand de Saussure (November 26, 1857 - February 22, 1913) was a Swiss linguist.

Born in Geneva, he laid the foundation for many developments in linguistics in the 20th century. He perceived linguistics as a branch of a general science of signs he proposed to call semiology (now generally known as semiotics). --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_de_Saussure [Oct 2005]
