Jon - I explained a 'literal-bound' analysis in my post, when I gave the
example of Saussurian semiological nominalism, where 'this word' stands for
'that meaning'.
As for the triad of semiosis, I've explained mediation many times before and
won't repeat that explanation.

Edwina, List:
Would you mind clarifying, as well? What exactly do you mean by "a
'literal-bound' analysis of Peirce"? What exactly is "that evolving and
complex mediating 'law'" that you seem to believe is essential to proper
interpretation? As far as I can tell, Jerry did not point out any such thing
in his response, so maybe I am just missing something.

I think one has to be careful, as others have pointed out, in moving into a
'literal-bound' analysis of Peirce. That, in my view, moves into Saussurian
semiological nominalism where 'this word' has just 'that meaning'. Such a
dyadic one-to-one referential framework i.e., where interpretation absents
itself from that evolving and complex mediating 'law' [as Jerry points out] is
the antithesis of Peircean semiosis.
