Dear Stephen: As I have read, Peirce desired nothing more than to accede to the title of "Second Aristotle"
From the first paragraph of first volume of CP: "[I intend] to make a philosophy like that of Aristotle, that is to say, to outline a theory so comprehensive that, for a long time to come, the entire work of human reason, in philosophy of every school and kind, in mathematics, in psychology, in physical science, in history, in sociology, and in whatever other departments may be, shall appear as the filling up of its details." http://paulhague.net/kindred-spirits/peirce/ *Ben Novak* 5129 Taylor Drive, Ave Maria, FL 34142 Telephone: (814) 808-5702 Mobile: (814) 424-8501 *"All art is mortal, **not merely the individual artifacts, but the arts themselves.* *One day the last portrait of Rembrandt* *and the last bar of Mozart will have ceased to be—**though possibly a colored canvas and a sheet of notes may remain—**because the last eye and the last ear accessible to their message **will have gone." *Oswald Spengler On Mon, Feb 12, 2018 at 10:22 AM, Stephen C.
