| Zusammenfassung: | A genealogical study that traces a "broadly Cartesian" pattern of argumentation: from Augustine's scriptural semiotic to the "narrowly Cartesian" practice of foundationalism to Charles Peirce's pragmatic and reparative semiotic. The essay argues (1) that Augustine transformed Stoic logic into a scriptural semiotic; (2) that this semiotic breeds both Cartesian foundationalism and the pragmatic semiotic that repairs it; (3) that Peirce's semiotic displays the latter. In sum, Augustine's inquiry risks foundationalism but also breeds a self-corrective "reparative reasoning." This reasoning is at once scriptural and philosophic. |
