Description: Life and work of 19th century American logician and philosopher; by Robert Burch.
Charles Sanders Peirce (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) First published Fri Jun 22, 2001; substantive revision Tue Aug 3, 2010 Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914) was the founder of American pragmatism (later called by Peirce “pragmaticism†in order to differentiate his views from others being labelled “pragmatismâ€), a theorist of logic, language, communication, and the general theory of signs (which was often called by Peirce “semeioticâ€), an extraordinarily prolific mathematical logician and general mathematician, and a developer of an evolutionary, psycho-physically monistic metaphysical system. A practicing chemist and geodesist by profession, he nevertheless considered scientific philosophy, and especially logic, to be his vocation. In the course of his polymathic researches, he wrote voluminously on an exceedingly wide range of topics, ranging from mathematics, mathematical logic, physics, geodesy, spectroscopy, and astronomy, on the one hand, to psychology, anthropology, history, and economics, on the other.
