This book presents a systematic interpretation of Charles S.
Peirce's work based on a Kantian understanding of his teleological
account of thought and inquiry. Departing from readings that
contrast Peirce's treatment of purpose, end, and teleology with his
early studies of Kant, Gabriele Gava instead argues that focusing
on Peirce's purposefulness as a necessary regulative (in the
Kantian sense) condition for inquiry and semiotic processes allows
for a transcendental interpretation of Peirce's philosophical
project. The author advances this interpretation through presenting
original views on aspects of Peirce's thought, including: a
detailed analysis of Peirce's 'methodeutic' and 'speculative
rhetoric,' as well as his 'critical common-sensism'; a comparison
between Peirce's and James' pragmatisms in view of the account of
purposefulness Gava puts forth; and an examination of the logical
relationships that order Peirce's architectonic classification of
the sciences.
