All,

I included this note in a series where I may more easily find it again
and added the Figure which always helps me stay oriented in this arena.

Figure.  Normative Science, Phenomenology, Mathematics, Metaphysics

Caption.  “Normative science rests largely on phenomenology and on
mathematics;  metaphysics on phenomenology and on normative science.”

<QUOTE JS:>
Questions for everybody to consider:  In the 1903 classification of the
sciences, Peirce did not mention semeiotic, the most important science
that he introduced.  Why not?  Where does it belong in the classification?
</QUOTE>

The short schrift on this subject may be summed up in the following syllogism.

Logic = Formal Semiotic
=======================

C.S. Peirce • On the Definition of Logic
https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2012/06/01/c-s-peirce-on-the-definition-of-logic/

Formal = Quasi-Necessary = Normative
====================================

C.S. Peirce • Logic as Semiotic
https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2012/06/04/c-s-peirce-logic-as-semiotic/
(It's a peculiar use, but it's Peirce's peculiar use in this context.)

Conclusion.  Logic = Normative Semiotic.
========================================

Corollary.  This leaves room for Descriptive Semiotic.
======================================================
