%X Structuralism discovers the symbolic order. But the discovery of symbolic implies a new way of understanding the question about the reason (ratio) of things. The things are signs, and signs are irreducible both to the matter and to its representation. The signs are incorporeal, but this feature does not mean undefined. The signs are defined as they belong to an structure, and the structure is in each domain the reason of things: Saussure's language, Jakobson's phonemes, and L¨¦vi-Strauss' symbolic thought.
