Volumes 1-VI of the "Collected Papers of Charles Sanders Peirce"
are being reissued in response to a growing interest in Peirce's
thought - a development that was prophesied by John Dewey when he
reviewed the first volume of these papers on their appearance in
1931. Writing in "The New Republic," Mr. Dewey said, "Nothing much
will happen in philosophy as long as a main object among
philosophers is defense of some formulated historical position. I
do not know of any other thinker more calculated than Peirce to
give emancipation from the intellectual fortifications of the past
and to arouse a fresh imagination."
Originally published as six separate volumes, the Peirce papers
appear in the new Belknap Press edition in three handsome books of
two volumes each. The content is identical with that of the
original edition: Volume I, "Principles of Philosophy; Volume II,
"Elements of Logic"; Volume III, "Exact Logic"; Volume IV, "The
Simplest Mathematics"; Volume V, "Pragmatism and Pragmaticism";
Volume VI, "Scientific Metaphysics,"
This republication presents the seminal concepts of a writer
described in John Dewey's article as "the most original
philosophical mind this country has produced."
