many different modes-of-being-part-of the list (that's a relation, too, I guess) exist,
and I am not that active, but I follow parts of the discussions, by chance and circumstances
allowing me the time.
I think Peirce the scientist can be said to have a reductionist approach to relations (here, I take
"reductionist" in a positive sense of a method - not as ontological or epistemic reductionism),
while for Hegel, relation and relatedness is always already seen within the Geist-structure of
a phase in the historical development of human thought. I don't see Hegel's hermeneutic
approach and Peirce's reductionist approach as in conflict, just as a difference in approaches.
I should really not make such generalized statements, as I am not an expert, and you will find, I
think, many persons on the list that has studied Peirce's relation to Hegel far more in
detail than I.
Cheers,
Claus

Greetings all,
Since I'm new to Peirce-l (and lists in general), allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jacob Longshore; I'm a doctoral candidate at the University of Leuven, Belgium. My dissertation topic is on the concept of relation in Peirce and Hegel, which means I'll be working on this till Doomsday.
After reading the last few posts, my question about secondary literature should be a pretty easy one to answer: does anyone know of articles treating Peirce's essay "SPQR" (W1:91-4)? I can't find anything in the Philosopher's Index, but that may just be due to my misuse. Anything, even a "No such animal" would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, and best wishes to all.
cheers,
jacob
