The Cours de linguistique generale, reconstructed from students' notes after Saussure's death in 1913, founded modern linguistic theory by breaking the study of language free from a merely historical and comparativist approach. Saussure's new method, now known as Structuralism, has since been applied to such diverse areas as art, architecture, folklore, literary criticism, and philosophy.Roy Harris is the author of 'Course in General Linguistics (Open Court Classics)', published 1998 under ISBN 9780812690231 and ISBN 0812690230.
