 From the point of view of Peirce scholars, an interesting element of this division of objects and interpretants is how it might be used to inform accounts of meaning raised in analytic philosophy of language. Risto Hilpinen (2019), for instance, argues that we can see clear parallels between Peirce’s immediate object and Frege’s notion of “sense”. Atkin (2008a) suggests a range of connections between Peirce’s later division of objects and interpretants and analytic accounts of meaning and reference, and even identifies a historical connection between Peirce’s accounts of signs and recent work on meaning by John Perry (Atkin 2008b). (For other related work on Peirce’s sign theories as accounts of reference and meaning see Bellucci 2021, Agler 2010, and Hilpinen 2015).
