Oct 1, 2016 at 15:54 comment added user6726 It was Jakobson. Trubetzkoy spoke of "marks", and Jakobson invented the things what we (and he) call "features".
Oct 1, 2016 at 9:43 comment added Teusz Was it Jakobson or Trubetzkoy who invited feature theory?
Sep 30, 2016 at 16:51 comment added Greg Lee Feature theory was invented by Trubetzkoy, except perhaps for the term "feature" itself.

Sep 29, 2016 at 15:05 comment added user6726 Feature theory was invented by Jakobson in 1949, for phonology. It was subsequently applied to everything else.
Sep 29, 2016 at 8:19 comment added curiousdannii Are you asking about componential analysis? I don't know whether feature matrices were first used in phonology or semantics/morphosyntax, but whichever was second just borrowed the notation from the first. They're now essentially unrelated.
