This seminal text is an inspiration for linguists, literary theorists and semioticians. The essay deals with two types of Aphasic Disturbances. It works on syntagmatic or paradigmatic axis of sentences. The abnormal speech behavior divides into similarity disorders and Contiguity disorders . Jakobson associates these disorders with the common figures of speech like metaphor and metonymy.
