- Reporting Results; From an analytical study of a bibliographic

nature, information was collected that allows associating the
evolution of linguistic theory with the expansion and solidification
of Marxist theories. Checking the Saussurean theories present in his
writings and, mainly, in the General Linguistics Course, it was
possible to perceive a direct connection with the concepts
brought by Marx in texts such as "Alienated Work", "Grundrisse"
and "The Merchandise".
- Discussing findings; The discoveries made in this study confirm the
initial deductions, however, we are faced with a strong influence of
literature in the development of linguistic theories and in the
development of Marxist theories, a relationship that is only
mentioned in this work but that will be deepened in later studies. In
this way, the present research presents a great possibility of
expansion, since the linguistic / society / literature relationship is
very wide.
