FLOREZ RESTREPO, Jorge Alejandro. The synechism, realism, and empiricism of charles s. Peirce, applied to your theories of perception and knowledge. discus.filos [online]. 2013, vol.14, n.23, pp.233-252. ISSN 0124-6127.

This paper tracks down the importance of three principles of the philosophy by Charles S. Peirce, applied to the particular case of perception and cognition. These principles are: sinechism, or the principle of continuity; realism, in both ontological and epistemological sense; and empiricism, in a new formulation opposed to the traditional empiricism. As a result, I shall argue for three claims (i) Peirce defends a continuity between sensation and reason, that avoids Cartesian dualism (sinechism); (ii) he accepts the independence of the object and the subject without being a naïve realist (scholastic Peircean realism); and (iii) he admits subjective elements both in perception and in reasoning without falling into idealism (Peircean radical empiricism).
