Peirce (1839-1914) was a practising physical scientist and for thirty-two years employed by the United states Coast and Geodetic Service – first and foremost surveying and conducting geodetic investigations, for example making measurements of the intensity concerning the gravitational field of the earth (cf. Fisch 1993). But Peirce was also a fine theorist of the logic and philosophy of science, and in a fragment (c. 1897) he accentuated that: ”…out of a contrite fallibilism, combined with a high faith in the reality of knowledge, and an intense desire to find things out, all my...

S. Peirce's theory of metaphor can provide us with an insight into concept formation. Peirce did not write much about the metaphor; still his suggestion that the basic mechanism of metaphor is that of parallelism is very interesting. This seems to suggest that metaphor is important to him not as an poetical adornment but as a special kind of abduction and as a basic esthetic element that pushes science forward towards the esthetic ideal: growth in concrete reasonableness.

Peirce; esthetics; concept formation View Paper<https://www.academia.edu/keypass/SzRzRDkwL0ttb0FmVUlTOHM2cWdvRlpQSHZRQm9VUnlua3ZyNTBFa0F4Zz0tLW5FVWwzU0xkV0VQVUdzTndSQ01vWVE9PQ==--6103416437e6f2ea55a164b1cac9bdfb4d5f29f4/t/a-Kq2zak4-WUjJ4/477635/Metaphor_Concept_formation_and_Esthetic_Semeiosis_in_a_Peircean_Perspective?auto=view&campaign=weekly_digest> [http://a.academia-assets.com/images/s65_no_pic.png] <https://independent.academia.edu/t/a-Kq2zak4-WUjJ4/BentS%C3%B8rensen> Bent Sørensen <https://independent.academia.edu/t/a-Kq2zak4-WUjJ4/BentS%C3%B8rensen> Ontological realms and symbolic mediation of the hypoiconic metaphor<https://www.academia.edu/t/a-Kq2zak4-WUjJ4/556742/Ontological_realms_and_symbolic_mediation_of_the_hypoiconic_metaphor> C. S. Peirce defined the metaphor as a sign of the type hypo-icon. The metaphor depends on a special kind of similarity, namely parallelism. But Peirce never gave an answer to the question “on which ontological level can the similarity of metaphor be identified?”. However, a tentative answer seems to be deducible from different text passages in Peirce’s grand oeuvre. Even though Peirce defined the metaphor as a hypoiconic sign, he was accentuating the metaphor’s most salient semeiotic mechanism, not describing the only one. Thus, the metaphor is e.g. also a symbolically mediated icon. In...

S. Peirce’s (1839-1914) concept of metaphor and abduction. To our knowledge Peirce never did analyze nor even mention the two concepts in the same context. But we understand the hypoiconic metaphor as rooted in the abductive mode of inference; the hypoiconic metaphor is part of an intricate relation between experience, body, inference, and guessing instinct as a semeiotic mechanism which can convey novel ideas.
