Peircers, I found the figure I used to draw to explain that "pragmatic ordering of the normative sciences" --

The Pragmatic Cosmos Here is the Figure that goes with this description of the Pragmatic Cosmos, or the pragmatically ordered normative sciences: Aesthetics, Ethics, and Logic. The arrangement is best viewed as a planar projection of a solid geometric configuration, as three cylinders on concentric circular bases, all subtending an overarching cone. This way of viewing the situation brings into focus the two independent or orthogonal order relations that exist among the normative sciences. In regard to their bases, logic is a special case of ethics and aesthetics, and ethics is a special case of aesthetics, understanding these concepts in their broadest senses. In respect of their altitudes, logic exercises a critical perspective on ethics and aesthetics, and ethics exercises a critical perspective on aesthetics. -- academia: http://independent.academia.edu/JonAwbrey inquiry list: http://stderr.org/pipermail/inquiry/ mwb: http://www.mywikibiz.com/Directory:Jon_Awbrey oeiswiki: http://www.oeis.org/wiki/User:Jon_Awbrey word press blog 1: http://jonawbrey.wordpress.com/ word press blog 2: http://inquiryintoinquiry.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the PEIRCE-L listserv.
