Stephen, Clark, Edwina, List...
I think that I wrote already about this subject... but there are two authors that I like very much that constructed some good 'metaphors' for the understanding of the /triadic relation/. Jacques Lacan and Louis Althusser studied Peirce in a Seminar by Farnçois Recanati in Paris, France, during the 50's...??? if somebody knows a good reference, I would be glad to know more about...

Lacan was interested in the unconscious from a psychoanalytic point of view, and he learned that besides his "the imaginary" (1ness) and "the symbolic" (3ness, both derived from Ferdinand de Sussure's linguistic sign) he had to add "the real" (2ness) that he defined as "the impossible", « la grimace du réel »... or better (or in a more perverse way): "what never ceases to not join the symbolic" (the translation from the Spanish version is mine...) apparently, the French (original version) is. « ce qui/ne cesse/de/ne pas/s'écrire »... I think that it is a good conceptual approach to the Dynamic Object by Peirce. For that and else... he was expelled from the IPA (/International Psychoanalytic Association).../

Althusser (even if considered a Stalinist by a dear fellow of the Peirce-L) wrote about the "Social Practice"... and (following Peirce) he proposed: a /Theoretical Practice/ (1ness), an /Economical Practice/ (2ness) and a /Political Practice/ (3ness). He did not give a synthetic or unique word to 'baptize' the /Theoretical Practice/ which I consider 'possibilitant' (following Peirce of course), but he stated that the /Political Practice /is always 'decisive' and that the Economical Practice is 'determinant only in last instance' (I say, because it is the 'real impossible'... and if you don't believe it, follow what will happen with Argentina after the 10th of December...). Pitifully, because of his statements, he was expelled form the PCF (Parti Communiste Français)... But Althusser also added a good explanation (for the Peircean definition of sign): normally, one aspect of the sign will be 'dominant'.
Did Peirce say something like that? somewhere?

Taking account of what happened to those two scholars... perhaps the 'triadic relation' can be a very dangerous subject...!!!???
All the best

Triadic Philosophy as I have evolved it over its lifetime tends to agree in with what you have said Clark about the triad. With the following exception which I take to be at least somewhat related to Peirce and perhaps to agree with something I have seen in Edwina's posts. The triadic progression is the progression of a sign which originates in the spontanaity of firstness and proceeds through the obstacles set up in secondness and arrives at the expressions and actions made possible by the encounter of 1 and 2.

I understand that the premise of Triadic Philosophy, that Reality is all, is hardly consistent with Peirce.

    Peirce’s ontology doesn’t quite follow that. Firstness is the
    world of raw experience, ideas or possibility, secondness the
    world of reactions, brute force & actuality and thirdness the
    world of signs, connections and power (not necessarily mental
    unless one is careful what one means by that). So depending upon
    what one means by structure you’d have that in the third universe.

    Again though one has to be careful with terminology and Peirce’s
    shifts around a bit over time.
