Resumen
The emergence of linguistics in Argentina, since the creation of the Institute of Philology of Buenos Aires, was not alien to the Saussurean epistemological turn. It is then possible to infer the first receptions and (eventual) spreading of the CLG by analysing certain communications delivered by Montolíu (1925) and Alonso (1927-1946), two of the directors of the Institute. Specifically, these two Spanish philologists were at first in tune with the scientific modernisation of Saussure's thought, because they understood it was representative of a spiritualistic view of language. Some time later, Alonso made new interpretations of Saussure's work, until 1945, when he prefaced his own Spanish translation of the CLG. In his prologue he posits that the CLG embodied the consolidation of positivism.
