«Curso de Linguística Geral» is the linguistics essay by Ferdinand de Saussure, published by Publicações Dom Quixote in paperback (392 pages, in Portuguese).
A posthumous and fundamental work of linguistics, it brings together Ferdinand de Saussure's lecture notes. In it, he presents language as a structure of signs, introduces the distinction between langue and parole, and analyzes the arbitrary nature of the linguistic sign, ideas that shaped the study of language.
This Portuguese edition was published in 1999 and is part of the Nova Enciclopédia collection by Publicações Dom Quixote.
Aimed at linguistics students and academics, as well as readers interested in the theoretical foundations of language.
Ferdinand Mongin de Saussure was a Swiss linguist, semiotician and philosopher. His ideas laid a foundation for many significant developments in both linguistics and semiotics in the 20th century. He is widely considered one of the founders of 20th-century linguistics and one of two major founders of semiotics, or semiology, as Saussure called it.
