Abstracts

The paper discusses Peirce’s version of pragmatism based principally on his logical maxim (its various formulations appeared in 1878-1907) within the context of articulating the character of this philosophical school. The author describes the key features of Peirce’s pragmatist maxim as different from James’s version and shows an open and pluralistic character of pragmatism. Despite the substantial meaning of Peirce’s maxim consisting in providing the „pragmatic meaning“ of thought, the author argues that the pragmatist philosophy can be understood and developed in far more ways.
