Immanuel Kant was seen by Charles S. Peirce like his direct predecessor. In his projects of scientific philosophy or scientific metaphysics he drew upon Kant’s intellectual legacy. The architectonics of Peirce’s philosophy is closely connected with Kant’s Critique of pure reason. Yet, Peirce could preserve the autonomy of his own reasoning. The paper offers an analysis of Kant’s multifold influence upon Peirce’s philosophy.

This is a fragment of the book 'Truth and Illusion' which is in progress. The article discusses the operational sense of truthfulness as was defined by Peirce and James. The 'founding fathers' of pragmatism are presented as, on the one hand, critics of truth as representation, but on the other hand, as strong defenders of truth as an agreement of opinion. The striking contrast between them and the present neopragmatic refutation of truth is emphasized.

The essay offers an explanation of the most important Peirce’s steps on his way to scientific metaphysics. His philosophy might be described as a conceptual reconstruction of the universe using the methods of science. Logic and methodology and their place in the construction of the new philosophy, i.e. Peirce’s scientific metaphysics, are outlined as well. Fallibilism and abduction are among the means needed to achieve this objective. Peirce suggests that the key to the explanation of active human condition is the philosophy of pragmaticism.

The author questions the traditional views of pragmatism and semiotics as having originated independently one from the other; i. e. that of Peirce creating semiotics first and pragmatism following afterwards, or vice versa. For him it seems more plausible that semiotics and pragmatism were just two parts of Peirce’s early project which brought together philosophy and science. This provided the basis for what has yet to be developed, namely the project of “semiotic pragmatism”, or, more generally, the “semioticization of philosophy”. The article outlines this very project, which R. Rorty had misunderstood and therefore completely ignored. The author contends that pace Rorty, the meaning of semiotics is as important to pragmatism as the meaning of pragmatism is to semiotics. However, he shows, how these two seemingly antagonistic versions of pragmatism could be reconciled.

The paper deals with the problem of Eco’s (mis)interpretation of some Peirceian themes, mainly in Eco’s two texts: Theory of Semiotics and Kant and the Platypus. The author’s focus is on the problems of the so called Dynamical object as a part of semiosis and of Peirce’s realism. Resulting from the analysis is the main thesis of the article: We cannot conceive of Peirce as using „structuralist dictionary“ (as Eco did in his Theory of Semiotics).

The relations between C.S. Peirce's pragmatism and his semeiotica are the basis of applying pragmatic doctrine in the study of the philosophy of sport. In the late period of the development of pragmatism, Pierce emphasized the role emotional- energetic signs-interpretants. They were the necessary stages to proceed conceptual, intellectual interpretation. The process of establishing the meaning (interpretation) of signs requires emotional and energetic activity, even in the course of solving theoretical problems. Peirce clearly emphasized that pragmatism wasn't a theory of truth. It means that pragmatism finds its application not only in theoretical examinations which aim at determining scientific truth, but also in every activity which assumes sign processes. Sport in this respect is particularly interesting, since it is a formal sign-system which is being filled with meaning in specific cultural semiosis, that is sports events, which are important on account of the continuity of earlier and later interpretations.

This is an update survey which maps the key features of naturalism as one of the central conceptions in American philosophy. Following the introduction with brief remarks on the current “naturalistic turn”, the author follows up with an overview of the development of American naturalism indicating its key figures and schools as well as its key features such as realism, non-reductionism and pluralism. He then focuses on naturalism of classical pragmatism. Based on an account of Peirce, James and Dewey and their contributions, the specific characteristics of their versions are given such as anti-authoritarianism (anti-absolutism), anti-dualism, and humanism. The classical pragmatist naturalism is “cultural naturalism” overcoming the gulf between nature and culture. Its central concept is the concept of human cultural practices encompassing human transactions with nature and human creation of cultural forms.
