Robert, List: Thanks again for our brief off-List exchange over the weekend. As far as I know, EP 2:481 (1908 Dec 23) is the only place where Peirce ever uses the terms "destinate interpretant" and "explicit interpretant." Although he seems to settle on "immediate interpretant" thereafter, he

Robert, List, Whilst taking note of Edwina's comment, thank you for this, this is what I meant, allowing that my use of 'mind' is individual based, hence what is being discussed is the pooled product of minds. The components of what we are talking about are in relation to what we are talking

I am sorry but if you are begining with " If commens means the sum at any time of whatever everybody happens to come up with,..." I am obliged, on Peirce's list to give the floor to peirce on this subject : " There is the Intentional Interpretant, which is a determination of the mind of the

Jerry, it's clear to me the passage quoted is coming from the realm of interpreting. The speaker might plan to engage others' reflexes but I think the speaker also on engaging their intellectual interpreting; it's for us each to override or complement our reflexes with our interpreting,

Jerry R., List, To act means to get on with life. If commens means the sum at any time of whatever everybody happens to come up with, we can each develop whatever aims we want, at any time, as we go along. From your wording here do you seem to be allowing for this. I therefore don't quite

List, Whilst there can be an infinite amount of interpreting by a potentially limitless community, final interpretant isn't this. Alongside descriptions by for example Donna Williams, a writer on neurology, the immediate interpretant corresponds to the pure perception part of colour, shape,

Robert, is it your intention to argue that communication cannot “succeed” at all unless the interpretant of the sign is completely determinate, and identically so for all communicants? Would you likewise say that knowledge is not actual, or real, unless it is absolute and unquestionable?
