All,
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
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” (Dewey, 38).
Tracing the passage of inquiry through the medium of signs calls for
an active, intricate form of cooperation between our converging modes
of investigation. Its proper character is best understood by realizing
the theory of inquiry is adapted to study the developmental aspects of
sign relations, whose evolution the theory of signs is specialized to
treat from comparative and structural points of view.
