	Think Philosophy
		Pierce developed pragmatism to answer the question "What makes ideas meaningful?" He concluded that ideas become meaningful because they make some difference in our experience.
		Pierce labeled his theory on meaning pragmatism, but when he found out that James used his theory as a test of truth he became upset.
		Pierce believed that the word was so ugly that no one would kidnap his theory again.

	Charles Peirce
		Charles Sanders Peirce (1839-1914) is generally regarded as the founder of philosophical pragmatism, and, with Saussure, of modern semeiotic, and also as one of the founders of mathematical or symbolic logic.
		He considered his semeiotic (as he spelled it, in contrast with current usage of "semiotics" as an inclusive term for all the various studies of signs) as a general theory of logic, and saw language as but a portion of semeiosis.
		The Collected Papers of Charles Sanders Peirce (1931-35, 1958) also available as CD-ROM (2002): Intelex; The New Elements of Mathematics by Charles S.

	Guggenheim Collection - Concept - Index
		A photograph has to be a photograph of something, or evidence of the chemical processes of photography itself.
		This necessity of the photographic sign to carry the referent within itself is what Charles Sanders Pierce, American Pragmatist and founder of the American school of semiotics, labeled the index.
		Produced by a physical, contiguous connection between sign and referent, the indexical sign “would lose the character that makes it a sign if its object were removed.” This is true of nonphotographic signs such as the residue of human contact: a thumbprint pressed into plaster or a cast shadow.

	Free Essay How reliable is our "idea of anything?"
		Charles Sanders Pierce states that "Our idea of anything is our idea of its sensible effects." In this paper, an attempt will be made to show the validity of this statement and to justify the exclusion of the imperceptible part of the outside world from our conception of it.
		For our purposes, we will set a person's mind and ideas apart form everything that goes on in the real world around it.
		As shown throughout the paper, Charles S. Pierce's view that our idea of anything is our idea of only its sensible effects is valid.

	SINTÁCTICA, SEMÁNTICA Y PRAGMÁTICA
		La otra concepción de signo, la triádica, fue desarrollada por Charles Sanders Pierce (1839-1914) y debe su nombre a que considera que el signo está formado por la cooperación de tres instancias, el objeto (lo que se representa), el representante (el símbolo) y el interpretante (la representación).
		La riqueza entonces se produce en el acto interpretativo, más que en la mera denotación de lo simbolizado.
		Y esto es lo que Pierce no advierte o cuando menos no enfatiza suficientemente: la interpretación se da en un sustrato, en un contexto humano, tanto psicológico, como sociocultural.
