| - | In the preface to second edition of ''[[The Sound Shape of Language]]'', the authors argue that this book represents the fourth stage in "Jakobson's quest to uncover the function and structure of sound in language." The first stage was roughly the 1920s to 1930s where he collaborated with [[Nikolai Trubetzkoy|Trubetzkoy]], in which they developed the concept of the [[phoneme]], and elucidated the structure of phonological systems. The second stage, from roughly the late 1930s to the 1940s, during which he developed the notion that "binary distinctive features" were the foundational element in language, and that such distinctiveness is "mere otherness" or differentiation. In the third stage in Jakobson's work, from the 1950s to 1960s, he worked with the acoustician C.
