In his theory of interpretation, Peirce’s attention is drawn to the work of “mind,” especially its appropriation of signs. Mind interprets nature by using signs in every form of inquiry. Based on his three categories, Peirce defines interpretation as a determinate process of interpretations of interpretations. Communicative process thus means, instead of just being determined as an interpretant by an object, that the interpreter is determined by a “communicative effort.” In the communicative effort, for Peirce, temporal unit is the necessary condition of meaning. In other words, in order to mean something, the communicative effort has to be performed in a continuum from a past to a future. Concealed possibilities can be actualized when the continuum is “broken,” genuinely divided. Peirce truly acknowledges that the possibility can be actualized when it is broken into parts.Secondary AbstractThe main purpose of this paper is to investigate Charles S. Peirce’s theory of interpretation, with special regard to the theory of determination. Peirce fleshes out his theory of interpretation out of the three categories that perpetually turn up in Peirce’s intellectual career. Based on the three categories, Peirce defines interpretation as a determinate process of interpretations. Communicative process thus means, instead of just being determined as an interpretant by an object, the determinative process by which the interpreter is determined. In order to mean something, for Peirce, the communicative effort has to be performed in a continuum from a past to a future. For instance, the possibility of communication between computers and human beings can be explained by aid of Whitehead’s concept of “flat loci” as well as Peirce’s theory of interpretation. A flat locus is essentially a spatial region that represents the finite arrangement of ones and zeroes. A computer turns what it “sees” (the visual information to which it is exposed) into ones and zeroes according to mereo-topological schemata. Peirce truly acknowledged that possibilities can be actualized when the continuum is “broken,” genuinely divided.

自然的解释：皮尔斯的解释理论

在他的解释理论中，皮尔斯的注意力被吸引到“心灵”的工作上，尤其是它对符号的挪用。心灵通过在各种形式的探究中使用符号来解释自然。基于他的三个范畴，皮尔斯将解释定义为解释解释的确定过程。因此，交际过程意味着，解释者不是被一个对象确定为解释者，而是由“交际努力”决定的。在交际努力中，对皮尔斯而言，时间单位是意义的必要条件。换句话说，为了有意义，交际努力必须在从过去到未来的连续统一体中进行。当连续体被“打破”，真正分裂时，隐藏的可能性就可以实现。Peirce 真正承认，将可能性分解成部分是可以实现的。次要摘要 本文的主要目的是研究 Charles S. Peirce 的解释理论，特别关注确定理论。皮尔斯从皮尔斯的知识生涯中不断出现的三个类别中充实了他的解释理论。基于这三类，皮尔斯将解释定义为解释的确定过程。因此，交际过程意味着，而不是仅仅被对象确定为解释者，而是解释者被确定的决定性过程。对于皮尔斯来说，为了有意义，必须在从过去到未来的连续统一体中进行交际努力。例如，计算机与人类之间通信的可能性可以借助怀特海的“平面轨迹”概念以及皮尔斯的解释理论来解释。平面轨迹本质上是一个空间区域，表示 1 和 0 的有限排列。计算机根据分体拓扑图将它“看到”的东西（它所暴露的视觉信息）变成 1 和 0。Peirce 真正承认，当连续体被“打破”、真正分裂时，可能性就可以实现。计算机根据分体拓扑图将它“看到”的东西（它所暴露的视觉信息）变成 1 和 0。Peirce 真正承认，当连续体被“打破”、真正分裂时，可能性就可以实现。计算机根据分体拓扑图将它“看到”的东西（它所暴露的视觉信息）变成 1 和 0。Peirce 真正承认，当连续体被“打破”、真正分裂时，可能性就可以实现。
