Resumo: | This paper focuses on C. S. Peirce’s theory of mind. Although there are only a few studies on this subject, Peirce’s theory of mind has potential impacts even in the contemporary context. This paper considers C. F. Delaney’s arguments and agrees with him that Peirce’s theory can be construed as one going along with the ‘externalistic tradition’. Moreover, this paper reflects on the concept of the ‘extended mind’ proposed by A. Clark and D. Chalmers, and then argues that Peirce’s theory of mind may encourage a sort of ‘active externalism’ on which the concept of extended mind relies. The theory of extended mind, however, has a problem regarding the definition of self. On the other hand, Peirce’s theory could provide an insightful understanding of the concept of self that may be free from the problem that the theory of extended mind suffers. This paper thus concludes that Peirce’s theory of mind suggests an optimistic revision of the theory of extended mind. |

Apesar de haver poucos estudos sobre esse assunto, a teoria peirciana da mente tem impactos potenciais mesmo no contexto contemporâneo. Este artigo considera os argumentos de C.F. Delaney e concorda com ele em que a teoria de Peirce pode ser construída em paralelo com a “tradição externalista”. Além disso, este artigo reflete sobre o conceito de “mente estendida” proposto por A. Clark e D. Chalmers, e, em seguida, argumenta que a teoria peirciana da mente pode encorajar uma espécie de “externalismo ativo” no qual o conceito de mente estendida repousa. A teoria da mente estendida, no entanto, tem um problema em relação à definição de self. Por outro lado, a teoria de Peirce pode prover um entendimento perspicaz do conceito de self que pode livrar a teoria da mente estendida desse problema. Este artigo conclui que a teoria da mente peirciana sugere uma revisão otimista da teoria da mente estendida.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2015-10-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/cognitiofilosofia/article/view/25189Cognitio: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 16 No. 1 (2015); 103-114Cognitio: Revista de Filosofia; v. 16 n. 1 (2015); 103-1142316-52781518-7187reponame:Cognitio (São Paulo.
