They need signs referring to sign relations, signs referring to elements and components of sign relations, and signs referring to properties and classes of sign relations. The orders of signs developing as reflection evolves can be organized under the heading of “higher order signs” and the reflective sign relations involving them can be referred to as “higher order sign relations”.</p><p>Some years ago I was formatting my old dissertation proposal on Inquiry Driven Systems for the web when the subject of “signs about signs” arose on the Peirce List. It called to mind the part of my document on Higher Order Sign Relations, on which basis Reflective Interpretive Frameworks are constructed, and the introduction to which begins as above.</p><p>Resources —</p><p>Inquiry Driven Systems<br>• <a href="https://oeis.org/wiki/Inquiry_Driven_Systems_%E2%80%A2_Overview" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">oeis.org/wiki/Inquiry_Driven_S</span><span class="invisible">ystems_%E2%80%A2_Overview</span></a> </p><p>Reflective Interpretive Frameworks<br>• <a href="https://oeis.org/wiki/Inquiry_Driven_Systems_%E2%80%A2_Part_10#Reflective_Interpretive_Frameworks" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">oeis.org/wiki/Inquiry_Driven_S</span><span class="invisible">ystems_%E2%80%A2_Part_10#Reflective_Interpretive_Frameworks</span></a> </p><p>Higher Order Sign Relations<br>• <a href="https://oeis.org/wiki/Inquiry_Driven_Systems_%E2%80%A2_Part_12#Higher_Order_Sign_Relations" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">oeis.org/wiki/Inquiry_Driven_S</span><span class="invisible">ystems_%E2%80%A2_Part_12#Higher_Order_Sign_Relations</span></a> </p><p>Survey of Inquiry Driven Systems<br>• <a href="https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/02/28/survey-of-inquiry-driven-systems-6/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/02</span><span class="invisible">/28/survey-of-inquiry-driven-systems-6/</span></a></p><p>Survey of Semiotics, Semiosis, Sign Relations<br>• <a href="https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/01/26/survey-of-semiotics-semiosis-sign-relations-5/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/01</span><span class="invisible">/26/survey-of-semiotics-semiosis-sign-relations-5/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Peirce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Peirce</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Inquiry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Inquiry</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Logic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Logic</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mathematics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Reflection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Reflection</span></a> <br><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Semiotics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Semiotics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/SignRelations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SignRelations</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/HigherOrderSignRelations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HigherOrderSignRelations</span></a> <br><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/InquiryDrivenSystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InquiryDrivenSystems</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/ReflectiveInterpretiveFrameworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReflectiveInterpretiveFrameworks</span></a></p>

The materialist answer (often? usually?) amounts to just‑so stories involving Darwin, and lions on the savannah, and maybe an elephant, or at least a mammoth.
