Classical pragmatism is explicated in relation not only to twentieth‐century American philosophy, including logical empiricism, (p…
Performativity vs. Indexicality
Appealing to the Peircean/Jakobosian multifunctional semiotic model of communication, this entry explains indexicality in relation to the other two kinds of the relationship between the sign and its object, i.e. iconicity and symbolicity, and articulates the following three dimensions along which indexicality can be characterized: (i) presupposing vs. entailing indexicality; (ii) object‐level indexicality (pragmatics) vs. second‐order indexicalit…
