Saussure: Signs, System and Arbitrariness - Modern European Philosophy
David Holdcroft
Professor Holdcroft's book expounds and elaborates Saussure's central ideas – that the primary object in studying a language is the state of that language at a particular time – a so-called synchronic study. It also offers a critical assessment of them, arguing that many of Saussure's claims are either questionable or have been misunderstood.
