Resumen:
The existence of links between Peirce?s theory ofsigns and Leibniz?s arguments in favour of symbolic knowledge is beyond doubt.The aim of this paper is to place Peirce?s thought in the tradition of symbolic knowledge in formal sciences. The startingpoint is Peirce?s criticism to the Cartesian notion of intuition. Hereafter, the paper will focus on Peirce?snotion of iconicity according to the theory of signs, and its role in thecharacterization of formal sciences. This notion of iconicity will be relatedto the subrogative and ecthetic function of symbolic knowledge, but theessential analytic function of icons will be stressed too. On this basis, itwill be argued that, even if Peirce?s thought is nourished by the tradition ofsymbolic knowledge, his iconic conception of formal sciences goes beyond thistradition.
