São intervenções e instalações que visam a produção de ambientes e objetos estéticos, com o intuito de atingir o grande público nas metrópoles, sobretudo São Paulo, provocando estranhamento e o choque, a fim de lhes despertar um novo olhar, uma nova mentalidade, uma mudança de hábitos, capaz de garantir a permanência dos sistemas vivos, entre os quais, os seres humanos, considerados, à luz da Teoria Geral de Sistemas, os sistemas biopsicossociais mais complexos existentes no planeta. Os projetos analisados são Natureza Urbana, de que fazem parte quatro instalações, Oceano Invadido e LUXO. Com base em conceitos centrais da Teoria Geral de Sistemas e da Semiótica Peirceana, pretendemos fazer uma análise sistêmico-semiótica dos trabalhos do grupo paulista Bijari, relacionando tais obras com o conceito de permanência na Arte e as ciências normativas de Peirce (semiótica, ética e estética). / The objective of this work is to demonstrate, through the semiotic analysis of threesystemic projects Bijari, that art can point out ways that lead to changing habits. Installations and interventions are aimed at the production of aesthetic objects and environments, in order to reach the general public in cities, particularly São Paulo, causing estrangement and shock in order to wake them a new look, a new mentality, a change of habits, able to guarantee the permanence of living systems, including human beings, considered in the light of General Systems Theory, the more complex biopsychosocial systems on the planet. The projects are analyzed Urban Nature, which are part of four facilities, Ocean Invaded and LUXURY. Based on the central concepts of General Systems Theory and Peircean Semiotics, we intend to make a systemicsemiotic analysis of the work of the Bijari, relating these works with the concept of permanence in the Art and normative sciences of Peirce (semiotics, ethics and aesthetics).

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / My thesis is broadly construed this way: intentionalism, as a theory about perceptual experience, says that the intentional character of perceptual experience determines the phenomenological character of that experience. In some way, to be explained, phenomenology is determined by intentional content. I will show that intentionalism fails on two accounts. It fails to replace the sense-data theory as an explanation of the content of perceptual experience. It also fails to deal satisfactorily with the problem of perceptual illusion. I will then offer an alternative rooted in the perceptual theory of Charles Peirce. I believe his critical but common sense approach preserves the intuition of sense-data theory, that perception is primarily a relation between perceivers and objects. Peirce’s theory also provides a better solution to the problem of illusion.

Cette thèse a pour but d'analyser le phénomène de l'ellipse dans la narration graphique afin d'y asseoir son rôle souverain. L'étude rend explicite la nature et le fonctionnement d'une technique d'écriture fondamentale qui jusqu'à présent a été reconnue de façon brève, instinctive ou implicite. S'articulant autour de trois axes, ses définitions, ses expressions et la logique de son interprétation, la thèse examine la nature et les caractéristiques de l'ellipse avant de vérifier son opérationnalité dans les bandes dessinées et de faire la lumière sur les étapes inférentielles que traverse toute interprétation possible de la figure. Pour ce faire, le premier axe revisite les concepts existants dans quelques champs d'étude principaux, soit la rhétorique, la linguistique, la littérature et la cinématographie. Une fois l'assise théorique générale posée, le deuxième axe porte un regard sur les diverses expressions de ces concepts en bande dessinée à travers une centaine d'occurrences puisées dans une vaste collection internationale, en particulier la France, les États-Unis et le Japon. Le troisième axe détermine le trajet interprétatif de ces expressions au moyen de la trichotomie inférentielle (abduction -déduction -induction) du philosophe pragmatiste Charles S. Peirce. Les recherches menées ont révélé qu'une compréhension plus complète de l'ellipse passait par d'autres figures rhétoriques de nature semblable qui, elles aussi, adoptent le non-dit et le non-montré comme lieux d'expression. La cohabitation avec ces figures et la confrontation de diverses conceptions de l'ellipse à travers différents domaines ont permis de synthétiser les résultats en une définition applicable généralement. Elles ont aussi donné lieu à une typologie générale, qui peut être modifiée pour s'adapter aux besoins particuliers; en l'occurrence, on s'est retrouvé avec une taxonomie plus détaillée des ellipses en bande dessinée qui couvre les formes des plus courues aux moins courantes. L'application de la classification à l'expression concrète de la bande dessinée a aussi révélé que le transfert des notions rhétoriques amène une modification notable du statut figural des procédés elliptiques, qui présentent un double comportement, tantôt sans aucun changement sémantique, tantôt avec modification de sens. Par ailleurs, le processus d'interprétation par l'inférence peircéenne a fourni l'outil nécessaire pour confirmer le travail incessant d'interprétation d'une bande dessinée, déterminer de façon logique l'existence d'une ellipse dans sa lecture et élucider la concordance entre les genres de raisonnement logique et les types d'ellipse. Ainsi les ellipses déductives procurent un sentiment de satisfaction dans la pratique de lecture de progression, alors que les ellipses abductives et inductives réjouissent davantage le lecteur de la compréhension, à qui elles ouvrent des horizons riches de possibilités et de probabilités. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Ellipse, Figure, Rhétorique, Taxonomie, Bande dessinée, Narration graphique, Interprétation, Peirce, Inférence, Abduction, Déduction, Induction.

S. Peirce (1839-1914), longe de ser uma ciência que explica a totalidade dos fenômenos abarcados pela organização da informação e do conhecimento, oferece conceitos fundamentais à Filosofia da linguagem e à Lógica, os quais podem lançar novas luzes à reflexão epistemológica da área. A principal questão teórica que norteia a pesquisa é saber quais as inter-relações teóricas e aplicadas entre organização da informação e do conhecimento e Filosofia e Semiótica peirceanas. Sustentou-se como hipótese que a Filosofia e a Semiótica peirceanas contribuem com explicações consistentes sobre os fenômenos decorrentes das atividades de organização da informação e do conhecimento. Para tanto, objetivou-se conhecer e avaliar as contribuições teóricas e aplicadas das Filosofia e Semiótica de Peirce para a área da organização da informação e do conhecimento. Trata-se de um estudo ao mesmo tempo bibliográfico e exploratório. Relata-se como resultados a presença dos níveis elementar e intermediário de interdisciplinaridade entre o pensamento de Peirce e a organização da informação e do conhecimento, principalmente, nos eixos Semiótica e Pragmatismo. / The C. S. Peirce’s (1839-1914) Semiotics, far from being a science that explains the totality of the phenomena covered by the information and knowledge organization, offers concepts that are fundamental for the language’s Philosophy and for the Logic, each ones can launch news lights for epistemological reflection to the field. The main theoretical issue that guided the research is to know each are the theoretical and applied interrelations between information and knowledge organization and Peirce’s Philosophy and Semiotics. The hypothesis supported is that Peirce’s Philosophy and Semiotics contribute with consistent explications about the phenomena resulting from the activities of information and knowledge organization. Therefore the objective is to know and to value the theoretical and applied contributions of Peirce’s Philosophy and Semiotics for the information and knowledge organization. It is at the same time a bibliography and exploratory study. It brings as results the presence of the elementary and intermediary levels of interdisciplinarity between the Peirce’s thought and the information and knowledge organization, mainly, in the axle Semiotics and Pragmatism.

Para tanto, a pergunta que norteou a pesquisa é: o que é abdução? O estudo hermenêutico dos textos de Peirce, especialmente no The Collected Papers of Charles Sanders Peirce composto de oito volumes, é apresentado em dois quadros que trazem Ideias Nucleares (I.N.) que, mediante análise, levam-nos as categorias: característica, procedimento e definição. A interpretação dessas categorias nos permite dizer que a abdução, em Peirce, é um raciocínio lógico, um ato inferencial que tem origem na ação de questionar sendo um tipo de raciocínio que difere da lógica clássica pelo modo como abre possibilidades de uma nova inteligibilidade do que se vê, do que se pode expressar quando é elaborada uma explicação do visto. Entendendo as características da abdução pode-se ver que ela abre possibilidades para a produção do conhecimento matemático dando forma ao conceito, que é expresso por meio de uma linguagem que expõem o sentido do produzido / In this research the goal is to expose the understanding of what is the abduction for Peirce, from a hermeneutic analysis such as it is treated by researchers from UNESP/RC bound to Mathematic Education Post-Graduation Program and to ideas of Hans Georg Gadamer (1999). For that, the question that guided the research is: What is abduction?. The hermeneutic study of Peirce's texts, especially at The Collected Papers of Charles Sanders Peirce compound of eight volumes, is presented in two boards which bring Nuclear Ideas (I.N.) that, by analysis, take us to the categories: feature, procedure and definition. The interpretation of these features allow us to say the abduction, in Peirce, is a logic reasoning, an inferential act which origin at action of question being a type of reasoning that differs from classic logic by the way how it opens possibilities of a new intelligibility of what it's seen, from what it can express when is developed a new explanation of seen. Perceiving the features of abduction it can see how it opens possibilities for a production of the mathematic knowledge giving shape to the concept, that is expressed by a language that expose the direction of produced

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Many theories of vagueness employ question-begging assumptions about the semantic boundaries between truth and falsity. This thesis defends a theory of vagueness put forward by Charles S. Peirce and argues for a novel solution to the sorites paradox based upon his work. Contrary to widespread opinion, I argue that Peirce distinguished borderline vagueness from other related forms of indeterminacy, e.g. indefiniteness, generality, unspecificity, uninformativity, etc. By clarifying Peirce’s conception of borderline vagueness, I argue for a solution to the sorites paradox based upon his logical semantics. In addition, I argue for this theory against the epistemic theory of vagueness, which makes controversial claims concerning the sharp semantic boundary between truth and falsity, and against the supervaluationist theory of vagueness, which is committed to the in principle impossibility of sharp semantics boundaries for propositions with vague terms.

At the beginning of the 21st century, in the fields of philosophy of language and moral philosophy, there has been a growing interest in studies dedicated to the “second person” perspective. This attention seems to reveal a crisis in the model of identity thinking, codified by Neo-Platonism, and its multiple conceptualizations, including man, logic and law, as highlighted by Maurizio Manzin. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the researches of Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy and Charles S. Peirce, who devoted their studies to the analysis of the crisis of identity thinking and to the formulation of theoretical proposals suitable for overcoming it, verifying their congruence and degree of adaptability to the theories on legal reasoning of an argumentative-rhetorical nature. Despite their partially different fields of research, the two authors began with the same starting point, that of pronouns, emphasizing the problematic arrangement handed down from scholastic grammar. In particular, Rosenstock-Huessy advocated a model of original social communication according to the Thou-I-We-It arrangement. The German speech thinker composes these pronouns in the “cross of reality”, a socio-linguistic model constituted by the integration between two phases (which are equivalent to two types of rationality corresponding to them) and four fronts: the event that occurs in the arc of nominal reality in the prejective front-subjective front-trajective front (by means of “fractal rationality”), is archived in the dimension of pronominal existence in the objective front (using “linear rationality”). Identitarian thinking assumes that it can study reality only from the perspective of the objective front, that is, of the individual and of deduction, of linear time and of the causality produced by the efficient cause. Peirce and Rosenstock-Huessy have expanded this monological status, placing at the center of their investigations the event as the confluence of two temporal currents, one oriented from the past towards the future (anteceptive) and the other from the future towards the past (ponecective), also contributing to proposing an original model of causality, the result of the joint effect of efficient cause and final cause. Once we have shown the form of the accomplishment of communication as a biographical and social fact based on the transformative status of linguistic propositions, we will try to apply it to the theory of law and legal argumentation, showing how a convergence is possible that corroborates the validity of the CALS (Cooperated Argumentative Legal Syllogism) model proposed by Manzin, in which rhetoric assumes a methodological and constitutive role of the internal premise, and thus of the judicial enthymeme.

Seu objetivo é mostrar como, no final da década de 186O" a partir de preocupações iniciais acerca da filosofia kantiana, notadamente a teoria das categorias, Peirce chega a formular, de maneira ainda precária, mas muito bem articulada, algumas concepções de suma importância ao seu projeto filosófico. Sendo assim, procuramos explicar que seu primeiro passo será estabelecer uma nova lista de categorias, com o intuito de explicar como se reduz o múltiplo empírico à unidade conceitual. Procuramos também explicar a elaboração dessa lista mostrando como o jovem Peirce chega a uma concepção de lógica diferente da lógica tradicional aristotélica. Em seguida, e em conseqüência do estabelecimento dessa nova lista, ele formula uma teoria da cognição, afirmando que todo pensamento é um processo de criação e interpretação de signos, cujo funcionamento pode ser descrito como um processo inferencial, e não mais judicativo. Também formula uma teoria da realidade dos universais, que assenta sobre a assunção fundamental da identidade entre as concepções de ser e cognoscibilidade. Essas idéias o levam a apresentar, ainda, incipientemente, uma teoria da justificação da validade da indução, baseada em uma descrição das condições de possibilidade da experiência, teoria esta que avança temas centrais do falibilismo e do sinequismo do autor. Tais idéias formam, segundo nosso juízo, a base de seu pragmatismo, entendido como método filosófico de esclarecimento dos conceitos científicos a ser aplicado à metafísica tradicional, com o intuito de renová-la, fazendo-a deixar de lado falsos problemas para ater-se a problemas de significação. O presente trabalho termina com uma sucinta menção às suas. idéias pragmatistas, desenvolvidas após esses primeiros trabalhos, para concluir que a originalidade de suas idéias, nesse princípio do seu desenvolvimento filosófico foi, ao menos, lançar as bases para uma nova maneira de pensar as imbricações entre as determinações lógicas, conceituais, e as determinações ontológicas do mundo - em outras palavras, uma nova maneira de pensar as relações entre [physis] e [lógos] / Abstract: This text contains, as indicated in the tide, an interpretation of the birth of the main themes of Charles Sanders Peirce's philosophy. lts goal is to show,how in the end of the 1860's from initial concerns about kancian philosophy, viz. the theory of categories, Peirce comes to sketch- though in an well articulated way, - some conceptions of the utmost importance to his philosophical project. Thus, we try to explain that his first step will be to set a new list of categories up, intending to explain the reduccion of empirical manifold to conceptual unity. We also try to explain the elaboration of this new list by pointing out the young Peirce' s new conception of logic, which is different from the tradicional aristotelian one. Further, and thereafter, from this new list he formulates a theory of cognition stating that every thought is a process of creation and interpretation of signs, whereof the very functioning can be described as an inferential, not anymore as a judgement process. He also settles a theory of the reality of universals, as a necessary outcome of the fundamental assumption of the identity of the conceptions of beeing and cognizability. These ideas led him still to present, incipiently, a theory of the justification of the validity of induction, based upon a description of the possibility condicions of experience, a theory which suggests central themes of his fallibilism and sinequism. These igeas frame the basis of his Pragmatism, as we see it, understood as a philosophica method of clearing up scientific concepts to be applied to tradicional Metaphysics, with the purpose of renewing it, setting aside false problems, focusing on signification problems. The present work ends with a succinct mention to his Pragmatism, developed after these early works, wherein we can see that the originality of his ideas at this beginning of his philosophical development was, at least to settle the ground for a new way of thinking the entanglement between the logical- conceptual- and ontological determinations o fthe world- i. e.?-a new way of thinking the relations established between [Physis] and [lógos] / Mestrado / Mestre em Filosofia

A son retour de Paris en 1940, Alfred Pellan ramène une production artistique qui se caractérise par la semi- figuration. Ces représentations surchargées d'éléments hétéroclites, de personnages hybrides et d'objets insolites participent d'une sémanticité nouvelle de l'oeuvre picturale. La sémiotique de Charles S. Peirce, aussi appelée "théorie de la signification", permet une interprétation approfondie, toujours "proposée" et jamais finale des signes visuels. En passant par la notion d'interprétant, les signes visuels iconiques, indiciels et symboliques permettent un décryptage des signes semi- figuratifs contenus dans ce type de représentations. Nous proposons dans ce mémoire une analyse sémiotique de trois tableaux de Pellan des années '40 et '50 en nous basant sur la catégorie de l'objet -icône, indice et symbole-, deuxième niveau de la trichotomie peircienne, en vue d'une confrontation théorie/pratique renouvelant l'approche sémiotique de Peirce en regard de l'objet pictural. / Montréal Trigonix inc. 2018

Thesis (DPhil (Philosophy))--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. / This thesis gives an historical overview of some of the issues connecting philosophy of mind and philosophy of langauge in the twentieth century, especially with regard to the relevance of both disciplines to theories of cognition. Specifically, the interrelation between the theories of Peirce,Chomsky, Derrida, and Deacon are discussed. Furthermore, an overview of twentieth century views on mind in both philosophy and the cognitive sciences is given. The argument is made that many of the apparently insurmountable issues that plague theories on mind and cognition today can be traced back to the metaphysical mould into which the philosophical questions at issue here were cast. Also, despite current resistance to the idea from many philosophical quarters, a case is made for approaching language and mind in terms of neo-Darwinist evolutionary theory.
