Peirce’s 1870 “Logic of Relatives” • Comment 10.7

Here is what I get when I analyze Peirce’s “giver of a horse to a lover of a woman” example along the same lines as the dyadic compositions.

We may begin with the mark-up shown in Figure 19.

If we analyze this in accord with the spreadsheet model of relational composition then the core of it is a particular way of composing a triadic giving relation with a dyadic loving relation so as to obtain a specialized type of triadic relation   The applicable constraints on tuples are shown in Table 20.

The hypergraph picture of the abstract composition is given in Figure 21.
