Peircers, Looking over these old articles it occurs to me there may be a few bits in them worth salvaging, so I started a blog series for attempting that:
https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2017/03/11/pragmatic-theory-of-truth-%e2%80%a2-1/ I think John Sowa's remarks about the “major failures caused by ignoring [Peirce]” and Jerry Chandler's remarks about later readings serving as a “Procrustian bed for CSP's concepts” are very apt in this context, and I will have more to say in that regard if I can get to it.

Peircers, I haven't looked at these articles since the days I wasted trying to justify the ways of Peirce to Wikipediots, other than to reformat them a little here and there, but some of their material may be instructive for ongoing discussions, especially the quotes from Peirce and Kant on the nominal character of truth definitions in terms of correspondence. To make the shortest possible shrift, I think we have to keep in mind that “correspondence” for Peirce can mean “triple correspondence”, in other words, just another name for a triadic relation. Note. The document histories of these InterSciWiki forks tell me that these drafts derive from Wikipedia revisions of 14 Feb 2007 and 29 Jun 2006, respectively. http://intersci.ss.uci.edu/wiki/index.php/Pragmatic_theory_of_truth http://intersci.ss.uci.edu/wiki/index.php/Correspondence_theory_of_truth Regards, Jon
