What is it about?

Pearson explains how he became aware of the work of Charles Peirce and why he became so absorbed with systematizing and extending Peirce's semeiotic into what the American semiotics literature has come to call The New Science of Semiotics.

Why is it important?

This might enable beginers in semiotics to better understand what Peeirce was trying to acheive and might also point the way to future research for more advances scholars.

Perspectives

This CSS interview showcases my life-long interest in ontology, epistemology, and the fundamental nature of meaning, and how this led to my devotion to the work of Charle Peirce, all wrapped up in what he called semeiotic. My systematization of Peirce's semeiotic has come to be called The New Science of Semiotics and this CSS interview brings it to a wider audience than the very narow technical audience that my work is normally adressed to.
