The aim of this book is to introduce you to some of the key concepts and ideas in Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiology. There are many other books on the market that can also do that – so why this book? Well, this is not a book in the traditional meaning of the word ‘book. It is a series of animations divided into chapters. Each chapter explores key parts of Saussure’s theory and all sixteen animations include subtitles with references to the books, journal articles and websites discussed. There is also a bibliography at the end and a referenced copy of the transcript in the appendix.
