Course in General Linguistics by Ferdinand de Saussure (edited and annotated by Roy Harris) is a foundational cornerstone of modern linguistics and semiotics, here published as part of the Bloomsbury Revelations series. Reconstructed from the detailed lecture notes of Saussure's students following his death, this seminal work introduced the revolutionary concepts of structuralism, the distinction between langue (the abstract system of language) and parole (individual speech acts), and the arbitrary nature of the linguistic sign. It remains an essential, deeply influential text for students and scholars across linguistics, literary theory, anthropology, and philosophy. Written in English.
