| Resumo: | It is the task of the normative sciences to inquiry into the statute and nature of the ultimate ends of conduct. The possible end will be object of aesthetics; the actual end will be searched for in the domain of ethics, and the represented end will be object for logics. Had our reason a transcendental statute, and the ultimate grounding of conduct would lay in its origin. Were conduct reduced to what is merely empirical, being identified with behaviour, all motivation would be particular, and philosophy would not have any reason to exist. Refusing both alternatives, the kind of philosophy proposed by Charles Sanders Peirce shall face the question of the genuinely ultimate but irreducibly phenomenal groundings to understand the nature of reason in its evolving tension towards perfection. |
