Michael, List: Thanks for sharing the article. Although it seems incidental to your overall project, footnote 2 caught my eye.
MS: The use by Peirce of the form "rationalized" (rather than "rational") as a modifier of "variety" in the quotation above should be taken advisedly. This use of the participial form, with its adversion to process, should serve as a caveat that when Peirce talks about "object*ive* idealism," what he ought to have said is "object*ified* idealism." This slight grammatical change puts the meaning of the phrase (and the doctrine!) in a whole new--and completely acceptable--light. Could you please elaborate on this? What specific difference are you emphasizing here between objectIVE idealism and objectIFIED idealism? Since you describe the latter as "completely acceptable," what do you find UNacceptable about the former as Peirce's own term for his metaphysical doctrine in 1891?
