Conant provocatively suggests that this Parisian brilliance most typically registers “what is now taken as the sound of philosophy”. “The sound of much of the language in Thoreau’s *Walden*”, he writes, “is apt to strike a reader – at least on a first encounter – as not particularly philosophical at all, as not even trying to sound like philosophy”.

As I reflected on the architecture that might be demanded by the task, at least to make a good beginning at organizing the available resources, it took on the shape of an elliptical orbit, with content nodes revolving about two ruling foci, called “Inquiry” and “Logic”, respectively. Still exploring the possibilities of architecture and information in parallel, I created a couple of focal wiki pages called “Inquiry Live” and “Logic Live”. • http://mywikibiz.com/Inquiry_Live • http://mywikibiz.com/Logic_Live The “Live” bit indicated a couple of design </pre> Jon Awbrey 2012-05-17T16:32:13 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.science.philosophy.peirce/8176 <pre>May the list prosper!

This abridged section on Aquinas and his sign terminology actually indicates the primary turning point of the doctrine of signs from something merely off-hand in Augustine to actual usage in Aquinas. The question came up for me in Deely’s justification of putting Heidegger in Peirce’s line of thought which I here took time out to make a real ‘first’ to untangle the web of Aquinas’ semiotics which Deely says is necessary to understand the semiotic line of thought through Aquinas to Po</pre> Gary Moore 2012-05-17T08:12:27 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.science.philosophy.peirce/8172 <pre>http://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2012/05/10/modus-dolens/ ;} </pre> Jon Awbrey 2012-05-16T18:48:10 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.science.philosophy.peirce/8169 <pre>PEIRCE-L subscribers, On 17-May-2012, the PEIRCE-L list will be migrating to a new environment, the IU List System.

There is the plea for a special terminology as opposed to popular terminology or language. The justification of this is ‘precision’. But such ‘precision’ needing a special terminology whether to a greater or lesser degree divorced from popular language simply sets up a ‘privileged’ standpoint of using language that is not judged by the actual rough and tumble usage of real language in real usage. This is not ‘precision’, this is mystification. The success or failure of any idea what-so-ever is its usage in ordinary discourse. Once established on that plain where an approximate but real general understanding is achieved, then one can seek precision of precisely those terms as really used in a living language.

He tries to show that Frege thought that Schroder's view exhibited a bias towards the methodological primacy of concepts by drawing on Schroder's Introductory parts of the Algebra of Logic. I think the central claim of the Sluga paper is that this supposed bias of the Booleans towards abstraction and the treatment of concepts as extensions of classes leads to a confusion over the relation between "abstract" or "pure" logic and predicate logic. How this is, is not always easy to see, but the segmenting of the judgement relation does seem to lead to a problem in seeing the abstract logic as a special case of predicate logic. How serious any of this is I don't know.
