Abstract

This article examines some of the relations that hold between analytic and pragmatist philosophies. One of them is the attempt of some analytic philosophers to reduce dichotomies (a typical pragmatist task). Here it is argued that in the task of reducing dichotomies the notion of analogy has played a major role (e.g. in Peirce’s iconicity) and that this notion can still benefit current discussion in philosophy.
