Ferdinand de sauserre

Ferdinand de sauserre was born in November 26 of 1857 at Geneva, Switzerland.  He born in a house where all his bloodline was full of scientifics; for example his father was Henri Louis Fréderic de Sauserre a mineralogist, entomologist and taxonomist and his Grandfather was a geology and mineralogy. 

How a person whose father is a scientific can choose a career related with languages that can be really hard for the family in that time. He showed talent for languages in really early age like 14 years old. 

His whole life was dedicated to languages and all stuff dealing with semiotics and linguistics, even he found the right way of teach in a meaningful way the general linguistics course at the end of his career, after of die because of cancer. He became famous for his students who gathered and summaries all their notes and decided to publish them all in a book name “general linguistics course”. I really admire his work because all of this change how linguistics and semiotics works in the last century and how the can be apply too.
