All,
Here's a paragraph on an issue I've explored in more depth
both before and after writing this bit of ice-breaker to it,
but since it's a topic I get back to every other summer or so
I'll leave this much as a segue and a reminder of the season.
There is a close relationship between the pragmatic theory of signs and the pragmatic theory of inquiry. In fact, the
correspondence between the two studies exhibits so many congruences and parallels that it is often best to treat them as
integral parts of one and the same subject. In a very real sense, inquiry is the process by which sign relations come
to be established and continue to evolve. In other words, inquiry, “thinking” in its best sense, “is a term denoting
the various ways in which things acquire significance” (John Dewey). Thus, there is an active and intricate form of
cooperation that needs to be appreciated and maintained between these converging modes of investigation. Its proper
character is best understood by realizing that the theory of inquiry is adapted to study the developmental aspects of
sign relations, a subject which the theory of signs is specialized to treat from structural and comparative points of view.
