Readings On Determination • Discussion 4

Posted on April 29, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Peirce List • Gary Fuhrman Determination, along with the related concepts of constraint, definition, form, structure, etc., are subjects of recurring discussion.  Here are links to readings I collected back when I began approaching inference, information, inquiry, logic, sign processes, … Continue reading →

It’s been a while, so let’s review … Tables A1 and A2 showed two ways of organizing the sixteen boolean functions or propositional forms on two variables, as expressed in several notations.  For ease of reference, here are fresh copies … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List • Robert Marty RM: What do you think of the presuppositions between the levels? Do they make sense to you? At this point I have mostly questions, which would take further research to answer, not to mention … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List • Robert Marty With a few choice exceptions I have always found Peirce’s earlier writings on categories, relations, and semiotics to be more clear, exact, and fruitful in practice than his last attempts to explain himself without … Continue reading →

Propositional Forms on Two Variables Table A2 arranges the propositional forms on two variables according to another plan, sorting propositions with similar shapes into seven subclasses.  Thereby hangs many a tale, to be told in time. Table A2.  Propositional Forms … Continue reading →
