[1] Other prominent developer of structural semantics have been Louis Hjelmslev, Émile Benveniste, Klaus Heger, Kurt Baldinger and Horst Geckeler.
Structural semantics is that branch that marked the modern linguistics movement started by Ferdinand de Saussure at the break of the 20th century in his posthumous discourse titled "Cours De Linguistique Generale" (A Course in General Linguistics).
Structuralism is a very efficient aspect of Semantics, as it explains the concordance in the meaning of certain words and utterances.
Structuralism has revolutionized semantics to its present state, and it also aids to the correct understanding of other aspects of linguistics.
The consequential fields of structuralism in linguistics are sense relations (both lexical and sentential) among others.
