Steven,
Having only your abstract to go on, I can certainly recognize
perennial themes out of Peirce's school, but they have been just
as perennially met with incomprehension as they have been brought
to the general lack of attention. Most notable among those themes
is no doubt the irreducibility of triadic relations, a formal fact
that flies in the face of naive reductionism and nominal thinking,
no matter how often the fashion in philosophy will resort to them.
Then again, having exhausted several decades trying to get these
basic facts across, what can I do but repeat what you recited?
| The criticism which I make on that algebra of dyadic relations …
| is that the very triadic relations which it does not recognize
| it does itself employ. For every combination of relatives to
| make a new relative is a triadic relation irreducible to
| dyadic relations.

| Charles Sanders Peirce, Letter to Victoria Welby, October, 1904
