Intentionality and Semiotics: A Story of Mutual Fecundation

John Deely

How can philosophy or science claim to discover objective truth when their arguments originate from subjective beings? In "Intentionality and Semiotics," John Deely offers a controversial solution to the problem of subjectivity in inquiry. He creates an interface between semiotics and the concept of intentionality, as it appears in Aquinas s work, to demonstrate that every sign is irrevocably linked to the reality of relations. In the process, Deely builds a bridge between classical thinkers such as Aristotle and modernists such as Heidegger andPeirce in this innovative volume."
