Posted on February 3, 2024 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Interpreter and Interpretant • Selection 1 Re: Laws of Form • Lyle Anderson LA: You can not find “ground” in Aristotle.  If the past three years have shown us anything it is that his assertion: But the mental affections … Continue reading →

Interpreter and Interpretant • Discussion 1

Posted on February 1, 2024 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Conceptual Graphs • Helmut Raulien   HR: I find it a bit problematic to say, that the sign determines the interpretant, because the sign doesn’t infer, it is the interpreter, who does the inference.  But ok, I guess we … Continue reading →

Interpreter and Interpretant • Selection 4

Posted on January 31, 2024 by Jon Awbrey

Interpretation and Inquiry To illustrate the role of sign relations in inquiry we begin with Dewey’s elegant and simple example of reflective thinking in everyday life. A man is walking on a warm day.  The sky was clear the last … Continue reading →

Interpreter and Interpretant • Selection 3

Posted on January 30, 2024 by Jon Awbrey

The following selection from Peirce’s “Lowell Lectures on the Logic of Science” (1866) lays out in detail his “metaphorical argument” for the relationship between interpreters and interpretant signs. I think we need to reflect upon the circumstance that every word implies … Continue reading →

Interpreter and Interpretant • Selection 2

Posted on January 28, 2024 by Jon Awbrey

In the next passage up for review the hypostatic abstraction of a person to conduct the movement of signs is described by Peirce as a Sop to Cerberus, a rhetorical gambit set to side‑step a persistent difficulty of exposition. It … Continue reading →

Interpreter and Interpretant • Selection 1

Posted on January 27, 2024 by Jon Awbrey

Questions about the relationship between “interpreters” and “interpretants” in Peircean semiotics have broken out again.  To put the matter as pointedly as possible — because I know someone or other is bound to — “In a theory of three‑place relations … Continue reading →

Differential Propositional Calculus • Discussion 9

Posted on January 21, 2024 by Jon Awbrey

Consider what effects that might conceivably have practical bearings you conceive the objects of your conception to have.  Then, your conception of those effects is the whole of your conception of the object. — C.S. Peirce • The Maxim of … Continue reading →

Transformations of Discourse It is understandable that an engineer should be completely absorbed in his speciality, instead of pouring himself out into the freedom and vastness of the world of thought, even though his machines are being sent off to … Continue reading →
