The term iconic form processes refers to phenomena that produce transitions between natural and symbolic forms. For example, the fire-scarred surface of a bronze artwork produces effects transcending the realm of artistic intention. When a work is created and perceived, the genesis of the image also invariably involves a "recession into the implicit" (John Dewey). This volume furnishes the foundations for a theory of iconic form processes.

"I do not think I ever reflect in words: I employ visual diagrams ...]" Diese Selbstbeschreibung von Charles S. Peirce (1839-1914) bildet den Ausgangspunkt fur eine neue Sicht auf das Denken des amerikanischen Naturwissenschaftlers, Philosophen und Begrunders des Pragmatismus und der Semiotik. Peirce war ein obsessiver Zeichner. Neben einer graphischen Logik entwickelte er eine zeichnerische Praxis, die untrennbar mit seinem Denken verwoben war, in ihrer philosophischen Relevanz aber bislang ubersehen wurde. Der Band versammelt konkrete Fallstudien zu zahlreichen hier erstmals publizierten Zeichnungen von Peirce. Auf der Basis dieses Materials fragt er nach der allgemeinen Bedeutung dessen, was es heisst, in Bildern zu denken.
