Ben:
I will have to leave it to Gary R. and Jim to respond to whatever it is you
are doing here. I just don't follow what is going on, what the problem is
to which what you say is an answer or clarification or whatever.. (That is
not a way of dismissing what you say, but just a personal
Ben, list,
this thread on The New Elements of Mathematics started with Charles
Peirce writing:
None of them approved of my book, because it put perspective before
metrical geometry, and topical
geometry before either.
Even today if one would consider to engage in the project of writing
Thanks for bringing Soren Brier's
summary statement to our attention, Gary.I put a link to it up at
Arisbe. (Soren was on the PEIRCE-Llist for quite awhile some
years back.) Does anyone know anything about what he calls "the critical
realist" movement? With whom does that originate?

Dear Joe Ransdell, dear list!Let me introduce myself to the list, my name is Jan-H. Passoth, I work as a junior sociologist at Hamburg University. The 'critical realist movement" Brier mentions goes back to the writings of Roy Bhaskar. Bhaskars main topic - as far as I can see - is to
Steven and Gary R:
Sorry to have overlooked that it was you who initially posted the reference
to Brier,
Steven. Your message had somehow gotten misfiled and overlooked by me and I

To Bob Chumbley:
It is available as an attachment to Steven's message and by URL in Gary
Richmond's subsequent post. It is now available at Arisbe on the webpage
for Peirce-related papers, listed under Soren Brier. I don't think it is to
be regarded as a message from the business community,
No problem Joe, thanks for the acknowledgment.
I am glad to see Brier's work appreciated.
With respect,
Steven

This bears on nothing currently under discussion, but I happened upon a note
copying a passage from the Logic Notebook in which Peirce explicitly defines
immediate and direct and thought I should record it here, given how
frequently the question comes up.. Of course it may or may not record
Dear Martin Lefebvre,
since your message/request seems as yet unanswered, here are my two cents:
In CP 6.483 Peirce mentions Professor Papini. To Papini there is a
footnote reading:
See What Pragmatism is Like, The Popular Science Monthly, vol. 71, p.351
(1907).
I cite from CP 6.483:
I did a check against an aging photocopy of the MS of the quote from Peirce
in my recent message, and found some errors of transcription, and also a
typo of punctuation that needed correction as well. I also include in this
correction an indication of the words which are underlined in the
