[CG] Re: Higher Order Sign Relations

Cf: Higher Order Sign Relations • 2 https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2019/12/04/higher-order-sign-relations-2/ Re: FB | Charles S. Peirce Society • John Corcoran https://www.facebook.com/groups/peircesociety/ All, Questions about use and mention came up recently on Facebook. In pragmatic semiotics the trade-off between “signs-of-objects” and “signs-as-objects” opens up the wider space of “higher order sign relations”. Here is how I introduced the subject in earlier work on Inquiry Driven Systems. When interpreters reflect on their use of signs they require an appropriate technical language in which to pursue the reflections. They need signs referring to sign relations, signs referring to elements and components of sign relations, and signs referring to properties and classes of sign relations. The orders of signs developing as reflection evolves can be placed under the description of “higher order signs” and the extended sign relations involving them can be referred to as “higher order sign relations”. Exposition continues at “Higher Order Sign Relations” https://oeis.org/wiki/Inquiry_Driven_Systems_%E2%80%A2_Part_12#Higher_Order… Regards, Jon
