Edwina, List: ET: I’m not sure why you have defined the object as ‘dynamical’; and the interpretant as ‘final’. Peirce didn’t do that in this section. This is not at all controversial among Peirce scholars. He does not refer to the *dynamical *object and *final *interpretant in 1903 because he

Jon, Edwina, List, Please note the subject line. The 1903 Harvard and Lowell lectures were an important starting point for the major developments in Peirce's final decade. And note Tony's word 'evolving' for the developments during that decade. In any decision about Peirce's directions and

A few more comments. 1] With regard to your post, John - I support the shift from a language based analysis to an image based one - but - question whether the phaneron is “in direct contact with the ding an sich’. My understanding is that such a relationship never takes place. 2]with regard

List I am aware that JAS’s use of ‘determines’ is not synonymous with ‘causes’ or ‘precedes’ - but is ‘logically constrains’. However, something that ‘logically constrains’ DOES, functionally operate as causal and precedent to other forces- otherwise - how would it function as that
