Peirce famously defined the process of thinking as what a person is “‘saying to himself,’ that is, is saying to that other self that is just coming into life in the flow of time.” For Peirce, this meant the essence of thinking is dialogue. This essay proposes a conception of dialogue grounded in Peirce's normative ideal of inquiry that challenges contemporary thinking about dialogue yet supports the same moral and ethical aims. Using a scene from Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice that Peirce used as an exemplar of dialogue, we propose a conception that begins in doubt and passes through phases of reasoning and ethical and esthetic judgment before coming to a resolution which expands horizons of thought, emotion, and action.

“我对自己说，我说”：查尔斯·桑德斯·皮尔斯谈对话的组成部分

Peirce 将思考过程定义为一个人“对自己说”，也就是说，对在时间流逝中刚刚进入生命的另一个自己说的话。对于皮尔斯来说，这意味着思考的本质是对话。本文提出了一种基于 Peirce 的规范探究理想的对话概念，它挑战了当代对对话的思考，但支持相同的道德和伦理目标。使用 Peirce 用作对话范例的莎士比亚《威尼斯商人》中的场景，我们提出了一个概念，该概念从怀疑开始，经过推理、伦理和审美判断的各个阶段，然后得出一个扩大思想、情感和情感视野的解决方案。行动。
