“From manuscripts R 703–4 it is clear that Peirce worked extensively on the 
third Illustrations article, “The Doctrine of Chances,” that same month.” That 
month was August 1910, according to Cornelis de Waal’s edition of Illustrations 
of the Logic of Science, from which the above quote is taken. (Open Court. 
Kindle Edition).

Dear All,

 

Would anyone know how to find out when specifically in 1910 (i.e., month) 
Peirce wrote his additional notes on "The Doctrine of Chances"? The editorial 
note at CP 2.661, where these additional notes appear, just gives the year 
1910, as does Justus Buchler.  

 

Thanks in advance for your help,

Dear Gary Richmond


Internationally, the thought of Charles S. Peirce continues to stimulate
significant work and discussion. Dedicated to promoting Peirce’s work and
thought, the Charles S. Peirce Society is pleased to update you on its
efforts, on new publications relating to Peirce and to pragmatism, and on
other news relating to Peirce. We are grateful for your support and for
being a part of such a wonderful and expansive community of inquirers.

Yours truly,

The Charles S. Peirce Society Executive Committee


*Spotlight on the Peirce Society President*


We are pleased to announce that Professor *Hans Joas*, Ernst Troeltsch
Professor for the Sociology of Religion at the Humboldt University of
Berlin, is the President of the Charles S. Peirce Society this year,
succeeding Professor Yi Jiang, who is now serving as past president and who
will be, along with other past presidents, a Society Fellow for life.


For more than twenty years, Professor Joas was also a visiting professor in
the Department of Sociology and in the Committee on Social Thought at the
University of Chicago. He holds honorary doctorates from the University of
Tübingen, Uppsala University and the Pazmanyi Peter University in Budapest.
>From 2011 until 2014 he was a Fellow at the Freiburg Institute for Advanced
Studies (FRIAS), and before that, from 2002 until 2011, he was the Director
of the Max Weber Centre for Advanced Cultural and Social Studies at the
University of Erfurt.


Professor Joas’s contributions to pragmatist thought begin with his famous
study on George H. Mead, *G. H. Mead: A Contemporary Re-examination of His
Thought* (MIT Press, 1985, 1997). Since then, he has authored more than a
dozen other books, including *Pragmatism and Social Theory*, *The
Creativity of Action* and *The Genesis of Values* (all of them University
of Chicago Press, 1993, 1996 and 2000, respectively). They are all
contributions to a new social theory based on American pragmatism. A more
recent book is *The Power of the Sacred. An Alternative to the Narrative of
Disenchantment* (OUP 2021), in which he argues that Peirce’s semiotics can
be synthesized with William James’s psychology of religion, and that such a
synthesis is crucial to a contemporary theory of religion. His most recent
book is *Under the Spell of Freedom: Theory of Religion after Hegel and
Nietzsche* (OUP, 2024).


It is truly an honor that Professor Joas will help lead our Society this
year and into the future.



*The 2024-2025 Peirce Essay Prize*


Once again, our Society is holding an essay contest directed to promoting
work by junior scholars. The 2024-2025 Peirce Essay Prize offers a $1,000
cash prize plus up to $750 for travel to the Society’s annual meeting to
present the winning essay, as well as its publication (subjective to
editorial revision) in the *Transactions of the Charles S. Peirce Society*.


The essay can be on any topic related to Peirce’s work, and we consider
submissions from graduate students and those who are no more than seven
years out from the year they earned their last graduate degree,
or ten years for those who have given birth or have had childcare
responsibilities (past winners of the contest are ineligible). The list of
previous winners can be found here

.


The submission deadline is *August 15, 2024*. Because the winning essay may
be published in the Transactions, the length of contest submissions should
be about the length of an average journal article.  The maximum acceptable
length is 10,000 words, including notes. The presentation of the winning
submission at the annual meeting cannot exceed 30 minutes reading time. Go
here

for
more information.



*In Memoriam**: John Lachs, Nicholas Rescher, Don Roberts, and Beverly Kent*


We are saddened by the passing of four distinguished scholars over the past
six months, whose contributions to pragmatism and to Peirce studies are
well known. It is our duty and privilege to remember and honor each one of
them.


*John Lachs* served as the Peirce Society president in 1987. He was
professor emeritus at Vanderbilt University, where he had served since
1967. He is the author of more 10 books and 150 articles, with one of his
last pieces being an
