For my part I'll need to lay out several more Selections before the major themes of Peirce's essay begin to emerge from the supporting but sometimes distracting details. In the meantime two clues to the Big Picture can be gleaned from the paired epigraphs I put up in lights at the top of the post. For what we have here is a return to the thrilling days of yesteryear when the mathematics of logic was still mathematics, shortly before Frege (maybe unwittingly) and Russell (in a way less wittingly) detoured it down the linguistic U‑turn to nominalism.
