  14. >The terms were introduced by Ferdinand de Saussure in his _Cours de
  15. >Linguistique Generale_, published posthumously in (I think) 1911.

  17. Before another myth starts spreading, let me add for the record that the
  18. Cours was indeed published posthumously, but not in 1911 - Saussure died
  19. in 1913, so that would have been a bit premature. It's 1916 to be precise.
