In this work, we start from the analysis of some documents by Ferdinand de Saussure to propose possible relations between language and history. The search to establish these relations is justified since the Saussurian concept of language is constantly taken as an element isolated from social phenomena, being understood as an object of study that is solely constituted from an abstraction. Considering this, we assume that these criticisms are established because they disregard that, for Saussure, besides being a system of signs, language is also a social institution, which presents a necessary relationship with social phenomena. From this hypothesis, we show that both the history of the language and the history of people are indeed relevant to the conceptualization of language presented in Saussure’s documents used as sources of our work.
