| Description: |
An attempt to interrelate and compare the linguistics of Saussure and Wittgenstein's philosophy of language - both of whom had influence beyond their field. It also raises questions about the radical break with assumptions about the role of language that their work provoked. |
| Synopsis: |
Saussure as a linguist and Wittgenstein as a philosopher of language are arguably the two most important figures in the development of twentieth-century linguistic thought. By pointing out what their ideas have in common, in spite of emanating from very different intellectual sources, this study breaks new ground. |
