Abstract
This paper offers a non-standard perspective on Peirce's notion of the Immediate Object, according to which this notion embodies the quantificational aspect of proposition-like signs. This viewpoint is supported by collecting evidence through the chronological analysis of the 1904–1909 manuscripts, in which the dichotomy of the Dynamic and Immediate object is developed. Moreover, it is shown how, after 1907, Peirce's semiotics is enriched by a new pragmatical sensitivity that brings forth a whole new framework and, consequently, a further evolution of the concept of the Immediate Object.
