ENGL 7011X Episode 1: Saussure, Structuralism, & Post-Structuralism--Speech Versus Writing
In this episode, I discuss the relationship between Ferdinand de Saussure's Course in General Linguistics, from which we get the terms sign, signifier, and signified, and later iterations of structuralism, such as Roland Barthes' "The World of Wrestling" (from Mythologies, and available on Blackboard).
