ET: But again, you can write about 'the elements of which it is
composed' . Here, 'elements' does indeed refer to 'categories'.
So you agree with Gary F. and me now?

the way, I can't find that quote in EP2:362ff].
And most certainly, the categories do belong to the field of
consciousness. Again, this is not confined to human consciousness.

According to Peirce, identification of the three Categories is the
outcome of analyzing the phaneron into the elements of which it is
composed; or more precisely, into the forms of indecomposable
elements of which it is composed (cf. EP 2:362ff; 1905).
As for "elements of consciousness," that phrase appears in several
writings in the Collected Papers, all considerably earlier than
1903--1.550 (1867), 5.241-247 (1868), 5.295 (1868), 5.395 (1878),
1.382 (1887-8), 6.267 (1892), and 7.542-3&580 (undated). It also
shows up in a 1904 letter (8.290), but there it is being quoted from
someone else.

Mike, list - I agree with you. I don't think that examining the
categorical signs of the phaneron can be understood as " analysis
into the elements of which they are composed".
Peirce referred to the 'elements of consciousness' - a key term is
'consciousness' [not necessarily human] but I understand this phrase
as 'elements of received interaction. ' I agree that it is a
'generality'. And agree with your focus on 'an instance of something
in Firstness, Secondness, Thirdness'.
