It does so by both reconstructing in detail Peirce's argument and giving a detailed account of the many ways in which history becomes an object of explicit reflection in his writings.

help us investigate the dynamics of cultural transmission. I first describe the theories of habit that emerged in the 19th century as a bridge between biological and cultural transmission. Second, I show how, once the Lamarckian premises of this 19th-century paradigm were lifted, the question of cultural transmission through habit became a sociological rather than a biological problem. Third, I analyze the work of Paul Connerton, who argued that habit and bodily performances are central
to the functioning of social memory.

Together with Jules Lachelier, these philosophers are to be taken as the paramount representatives of a
mid-nineteenth-century revival of spiritualist philosophy in France. To the extent that they broke with the eclectic philosophy of Victor Cousin, they veered towards what Ravaisson called a ‘spiritualistic realism or positivism’ based on a close dialogue with the sciences and on a new emphasis
on the concept of contingency. The chapter considers, in particular, the implications of this wave of spiritualism for the philosophy of culture and the philosophy of history.

It starts by looking at the emergence of Peirce’s interest in history as part and parcel of his polymathic profile. It goes on to analyze history’s role in the development of Peirce’s evolutionary account of the human mind. Finally, it explores the relationship between history and logic. Peirce was interested both in exploring history’s bearing on the investigation of logical questions and in employing his logical theories to elaborate a methodology of historical inquiry.

I suggest in particular that there are instances in which the transmission of a folkloric story, such as a legend or a tale, can intersect with a person's life experiences and facilitate the articulation of critical perspectives on society that might otherwise go unexpressed. The opportunity for discussing this idea is offered by the work of early twentieth-century Chicago sociologist Jane Addams. In her book The Long Road of Woman's Memory (1916) Addams dealt with the modern revival of an ancient legend and investigated its interplay with the recollections, grievances, and aspirations of working-class women.

In diesem Artikel werden zunächst die im 19. Jahrhundert aufgestellten Theorien zur Gewohnheit als Brücke zwischen biologischer und kultureller Übertragung beschrieben. Anschließend wird erläutert, wie nach Aufhebung der Lamarckschen Prämissen dieser Debatte die Frage nach der kulturellen Übertragung durch Gewohnheit zu einem soziologischen anstelle eines biologischen Problems wurde. Abschließend werden einige besonders einflussreiche zeitgenössische Theorien über die Rolle von Gewohnheit und Routine bei der Untersuchung des sozialen Gedächtnisses analysiert, wie die von Pierre Bourdieu und Paul Connerton.

In particular, it shows that the concept of stream of consciousness helped Cassirer to solve what can be called the problem of articulation: how should we describe the transition from the continuous flow of sensations to the creation of cultural forms capable of lasting over time? Answering this question means facing a problem to which James had not given a definitive answer, namely the problem of the relationship between the dynamic or transitory components of the stream of consciousness and its static components: concepts, symbols, images.

Hervorzuheben sind insbesondere die prozessualistische Auffassung der Erfahrung, die Bedeutung von Gewohnheiten, Symbolen und sozialen Beziehungen als Motor der kulturellen Überlieferung sowie die Betonung der gegenwärtigen Handlungssituation als irreduzibler Ausgangspunkt jeder Rekonstruktion der Vergangenheit. Darüber hinaus hat der Pragmatismus zwei konkrete Beiträge zur soziologischen Theorie des Gedächtnisses inspiriert: George H. Cooleys Theorie des sozialen Nachruhms und Jane Addams' Studie über das Gedächtnis von Frauen.

of Aby Warburg, in the years immediately following the latter’s death (1929). I examine, in particular, two
texts in which Wind advanced an ambitious reconstruction of Warburg’s approach to art history and the cultural sciences. In the interpretation suggested here, Wind read Warburg through the lenses of pragmatism, a philosophical movement with which he had become acquainted during his first stay in the United States, in the mid-1920s. The interaction of pragmatism with the Warburgian research programme allowed Wind to deal originally with the nature of symbols, the dynamics of cultural transmission, and the relationship between memory and agency.

It emphasizes, in particular, the importance given to the concept of experience, both as the ultimate testing ground for criticism and as the mainstay of all cultural phenomena. This idea begins to emerge in Charles S. Peirce's and William James's reflections on science and religion. However, it is only brought to full maturity by John Dewey in an ambitioned synthesis between philosophy and the social sciences. In turn, Dewey's work displays many points of contact with the work of other scholars working in Chicago in the first half of the twentieth century. In conclusion, the article touches on an alternative understanding of cultural criticism that comes out of Richard Rorty's "neo-pragmatism."

Peirce. While there seems to be no direct historical connection between the two authors, their philosophies display striking similarities, in particular with regard to the link between the problem of habit and the problem of determinism. Both authors resort to habit when considering the role of chance, spontaneity, and final causation in nature, soon reaching the basic metaphysical issue of how to think about the relation between nature and spirit, or matter and mind. Moreover, they articulate their positions using concepts and metaphors that directly evoke the Christian notion of love. Yet Ravaisson and Peirce also appear to disagree on some fundamental issues. In particular, they have differing conceptions of the relation between habit and spontaneity. The article explores the implications of this disagreement and attempts to unearth its philosophical relevance.

In particular, he has placed much emphasis on Royce's recourse to Peirce in his criticism of the Varieties of Religious Experience. On this basis, the present article tries to delve deeper into Royce's late reading of Peirce. Royce is quite successful – this article maintains – in grasping the Peircean conception of reason as an articulatory faculty. But he does not do full justice to Peirce's remarks about the inarticulate and experiential ground out of which articulation unfolds.

Peirce. As a matter of fact, Gallie was an authoritative reader of the American philosopher. All areas of his work are influenced by his attempt to take up and further articulate a major insight of Peirce's semiotics, namely the idea that symbols are inherently vague, and that their meaning is in a state of perpetual growth. At the same time, Gallie rejected another crucial tenet of Peirce's philosophy, that is, the idea that the growth of signs is regulated by the possibility of a final agreement among sign-users. Examining this ambivalent relation between the two authors will help us shed light on a question that was of crucial importance for Gallie: to what extent should we let our appreciation of concepts or beliefs depend on a historical examination of their meaning?

Mead on the genesis of the symbol? Building on a shared pragmatist foundation, Peirce and Mead derive certain fundamental hypotheses, such as thinking in terms of processes and the importance attributed to the notion of habit. In addition, their theories are similar in so far as they can both be considered as a midpoint between, on the one hand, a rationalist position in which the symbol is perceived as the product of agreement between rational agents, and on the other hand a radical empiricism which sees the symbol simply as the outcome of processes of repetition. Nonetheless, there are fundamental differences between the perspectives of these two authors, in particular with regard to methodology: highly semiotic in the case of Peirce, oriented towards the construction of a social theory in the case of Mead. The comparison between the two authors is therefore also an invitation to think about the possibilities and limitations of a more general pragmatist theory of symbolic expression.

Dieser Charakter ist auf kulturelle, politische und religiöse Gemeinsamkeiten der dortigen Länder zurückzuführen. Gleichzeitig lassen sich nationale Besonderheiten konstatieren: In Italien wurde die erste pragmatistische Bewegung außerhalb der Englisch sprechenden Länder geboren, war jedoch relativ kurzlebig; in Frankreich erlebte der Pragmatismus eine viel dauerhaftere Präsenz und einen intensiven Austausch mit der dortigen Philosophie; auf der iberischen Halbinsel hingegen war der Einfluss eher indirekt.

More specifically, the seminar aims to explore the crucial role played by William James in this story. In a chapter of The Principles of Psychology entitled "The Perception of Reality," James suggests conceptualizing different cultural domains-such as science, mythology, or religion-as "sub-universes" of our reality, to which we may grant or deny existence depending on the specific situations in which we find ourselves acting. This argument opens up the possibility of a systematic inquiry into the way the many spheres of human culture develop over time and interact with one another. At the same time, it relates to other aspects of James's philosophy that are pivotal to a philosophy of culture, such as the "will to believe," the theory of emotions, and the stream of thought.
