Through his decisive influence on Claude Lévi-Strauss and Roland Barthes, among others, Jakobson became a pivotal figure in the adaptation of structural analysis to disciplines beyond linguistics, including anthropology and literary theory ; this generalization of Saussurean methods, known as " structuralism ", became a major post-war intellectual movement in Europe and the United States.

; on Jakobson:

Another concept utilised in structual anthropology came from the Prague school of linguistics, where Roman Jakobson and others analyzed sounds based on the presence or absence of certain features ( such as voiceless vs. voiced ).

It is sometimes hard to distinguish Troubetzkoy's views from those of his friend Roman Jakobson, who should be credited with spreading the Prague School views on phonology after Troubetzkoy's death.

Roman Jakobson, expanding on the work of Karl Bühler, described six " constitutive factors " of a speech event, each of which represents the privileging of a corresponding function, and only one of which is the referential ( which corresponds to the context of the speech event ).

For Jakobson, the emotional qualities of a literary work are secondary to and dependent on purely verbal, linguistic facts " ( 71 ).

In " A Postscript to the Discussion on Grammar of Poetry ," Jakobson redefines poetics as " the linguistic scrutiny of the poetic function within the context of verbal messages in general, and within poetry in particular " ( 23 ).

Roman Jakobson described literature as " organized violence committed on ordinary speech.

For structuralists such as Roman Jakobson grammatical categories were lexemes that were based on binary oppositions of " a single feature of meaning that is equally present in all contexts of use ".

Roman Jakobson and others analysed sounds based on the presence or absence of certain features, such as voiceless vs. voiced.

Roman Jakobson ( 1896 – 1982 ) elaborated the idea that the production and interpretation of texts depends on the existence of codes or conventions for communication.

Jakobson has been active as a commentator on Finnish politics, having written several books and numerous articles on Finnish political history and contemporary Finnish politics.

Carl Robert Jakobson was depicted on the 500 kroon banknote.

Forty years later, Jakobson described language by saying that “ every single constituent of a linguistic system is built on an opposition of two logical contradictories: the presence of an attribute (‘ markedness ’) in contraposition to its absence (‘ unmarkedness ’).”

Drawing on existing studies of acquisition and aphasia, Jakobson suggested a mirror image relationship determined by a universal feature hierarchy of marked and unmarked oppositions.

According to Gregg Jakobson, Manson mentioned " Revolution 9 " more often than any of the other album tracks, and he interpreted it as a parallel of Chapter 9 of the Book of Revelation.

Lévi-Strauss had known Jakobson during their time together in New York during WWII and was influenced by both Jakobson's structuralism as well as the American anthropological tradition.

Roman Jakobson had been an active member of the Russian Formalists and the Prague School, before emigrating to America in the 1940s.

As early as the 1930s Jakobson had already suggested applying markedness to all oppositions, explicitly mentioning such pairs as life / death, liberty / bondage, sin / virtue, and holiday / working day.

Some linguists ( such as Roman Jakobson, Morris Halle, and Noam Chomsky ) consider phonemes to be further decomposable into features, such features being the true minimal constituents of language.

Linguistic devices that transform a verbal act into poetry range " from the network of distinctive features to the arrangement of the entire text " ( Jakobson 23 ).

Jakobson opposes the view that " an average reader " uninitiated into the science of language is presumably insensitive to verbal distinctions: " Speakers employ a complex system of grammatical relations inherent to their language even though they are not capable of fully abstracting and defining them " ( 30 ).

A systematic inquiry into the poetic problems of grammar and the grammatical problems of poetry is therefore justifiable ; moreover, the linguistic conception of poetics reveals the ties between form and content indiscernible to the literary critic ( Jakobson 34 ).

Guitarist Jakobson moved into the drummer's position and Talarczyk handled guitars and vocals.

While in New York, he became acquainted with Roman Jakobson and André Martinet.

Influenced by the work of Ferdinand de Saussure, Jakobson developed, with Nikolai Trubetzkoy, techniques for the analysis of sound systems in languages, inaugurating the discipline of phonology.

Jakobson was born in Russia to a well-to-do family of Jewish descent, and he developed a fascination with language at a very young age.

Jakobson escaped from Prague at the beginning of WWII daringly via Berlin for Denmark, where he was associated with the Copenhagen linguistic circle, and such intellectuals as Louis Hjelmslev.

Influenced by the Organon-Model by Karl Bühler, Jakobson distinguishes six communication functions, each associated with a dimension or factor of the communication process-Elements from Bühler's theory appear in the diagram below in yellow and pink, Jakobson's elaborations in blue:

The most prominent thinkers associated with structuralism include Lévi-Strauss, linguist Roman Jakobson, and psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan.

Later workers, starting with Trubetzkoy's colleague Roman Jakobson, have relaxed the requirement of similarities in all four of the areas stipulated by Trubetzkoy.

Later he studied with Claude Lévi-Strauss and later still with Noam Chomsky and Roman Jakobson, both influences, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

As a literary theorist, Bakhtin is associated with the Russian Formalists, and his work is compared with that of Yuri Lotman ; in 1963 Roman Jakobson mentioned him as one of the few intelligent critics of Formalism.

In the 1920s there was a " Bakhtin school " in Russia, in line with the discourse analysis of Ferdinand de Saussure and Roman Jakobson.

as Roman Jakobson or Emile Benveniste have used mostly an opposition between the first two of them but White refers to an earlier classification, adopted by Giambattista Vico and contrasts metaphor with irony.

In 1955, with the help of Harris and Roman Jakobson, Chomsky moved to MIT's Research Laboratory of Electronics ( RLE ) as the in-house linguist in Victor Yngve's mechanical translation project.
