    Biography from the MacTutor History of Mathematics archive.  
    http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk:80/~history/Mathematicians/Peirce_Charles.htm
    
    Extractions: Charles S Peirce was the son of Benjamin Peirce and studied at Harvard and worked for many years on the Coast and Geodetic Survey. He worked on geodesy but became interested in conformal map projections where he invented a quincuncial map projection using elliptic functions He was also interested in the Four Colour Problem and problems of knots and linkages studied by Kempe . He then extended his father's work on associative algebras and worked on mathematical logic and set theory. Except for courses on logic he gave at Johns Hopkins University, between 1879 and 1884, he never held an academic post. T S Fiske , writing about the New York Mathematical Society (before it became the American Mathematical Society) in [23], describes Charles Peirce:- Conspicuous among those who in the early nineties attended the monthly meetings ... was the famous logician, Charles S Peirce. His dramatic manner, his reckless disregard of accuracy in what he termed 'unimportant details', his clever newspaper articles describing the meetings of our young Society interested and amused us all. ... He was always hard up, living partly on what he could borrow from friends, and partly on what he got from odd jobs such as writing book reviews ... He was equally brilliant, whether under the influence of liquor or otherwise, and his company was prized by the various organisations to which he belonged; and he was never dropped from any of them even though he was unable to pay his dues. He infuriated Charlotte Angas

American scientist, logician and philosopher, considered to be the founder of pragmatism and the father of modern semiotics. In the past decades, his conceptions have been subject to renewed appreciation. At present he appears as a forerunner in many different areas, especially the methodology of research and the philosophy of science.

    Extractions: Charles Sanders Peirce, pronounced "purse" (1839-1914), the founder of pragmatism and a pioneering theorist of Semiotics , was one of America's most important and most original philosophers. His scope and range are perhaps wider than that of any philosopher since Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. He made fundamental contributions to probability theory, symbolic logic, the philosophy of science, mathematics, and semiotics, while publishing numerous papers on astronomy, physics, chemistry, and scientific method. Peirce generally described himself as an experimentalist and a "logician," a term that expanded in scope from his earliest papers to encompass virtually the whole enterprise of organized thought and inquiry. Despite being frequently recommended for university appointments, Peirce served only as a part-time lecturer in logic at Johns Hopkins University from 1879 to 1884 and for three years as a special lecturer in the philosophy of science at Harvard. Although he was a prolific writer, only two books appeared during his lifetime: Photometric Researches (1878), which established him as one of the leading astrophysicists of his day, and

The influence of Peirce is clearly seen in the works of Josiah Royce and John Dewey, but recognition of his importance was delayed because of the scarcity of published works. He left many fragmentary manuscripts, but the only book published during his lifetime was Photometric Researches (1878). After his death his major essays were edited by M. R. Cohen in

    Extractions: A fixação da crença Popular Science Monthly 12 (November 1877), pp. 1-15) (versão inglesa) Charles Sanders Peirce (tradução de Anabela Gradim Alves, Universidade da Beira Interior) I Poucas pessoas se dão ao trabalho de estudar lógica, porque toda a gente se concebe a si própria como sendo já suficientemente versado na arte de raciocinar. Mas eu constato que essa satisfação se limita à sua própria capacidade de raciocinar, e não se estende à dos outros homens. Entramos na plena posse do nosso poder de retirar inferências como a última das nossas faculdades, pois não é tanto um dom natural, mas uma longa e difícil arte. A história da sua prática daria um esplêndido assunto para um livro. Os escolásticos medievais, seguindo os romanos, faziam da lógica, depois da gramática, o primeiro dos estudos de um rapaz, e apresentavam-no como sendo muito fácil. Assim era, tal como o entendiam. O seu princípio fundamental, segundo eles, era que todo o conhecimento repousa ou na autoridade ou na razão; mas o que quer que seja deduzido pela razão depende em última análise de uma premissa derivada da autoridade. Deste modo, assim que um rapaz era perfeito no procedimento silogístico, acreditava-se que o seu conjunto de ferramentas intelectuais estava completo. Os primeiros cientistas, Copérnico, Tycho Brahé, Kepler, Galileu e Gilbert, tinham métodos mais semelhantes aos dos seus modernos confrades. Kepler empreendeu desenhar uma curva através da órbita de Marte; e o seu maior serviço à ciência foi imprimir na mente dos homens que isto era o que deveria ser feito se desejavam melhorar a astronomia; e que não deveriam contentar-se com inquirir se um sistema de epiciclos era melhor que outro, mas que deveriam reflectir sobre os números e descobrir o que a curva, na verdade, era. Ele conseguiu isto pela sua incomparável energia e coragem, tropeçando às cegas da forma mais inconcebível (para nós), de uma hipótese irracional para outra, até que, depois de tentar vinte e duas destas tropeçou, por mera exaustão da sua invenção, sobre a órbita que uma mente bem apetrechada com as armas da lógica moderna teria tentado quase à partida.

    Extractions: Sobre uma Nova Lista de Categorias (Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences 7 (1868), pp. 287-298.) (original em inglês) Charles Sanders Peirce (tradução de Anabela Gradim Alves, Universidade da Beira Interior) Sec. 1. Este estudo baseia-se na teoria, já estabelecida, de que a função dos conceitos é reduzir a multiplicidade das impressões sensíveis à unidade, e de que a validade de uma concepção consiste na impossibilidade de reduzir o conteúdo da consciência à unidade sem a sua introdução. Sec. 2. Esta teoria dá origem a uma concepção da gradação entre aqueles conceitos que são universais. Pois um desses conceitos pode unificar a pluralidade das impressões dos sentidos, e contudo um outro pode ser necessário para unir o conceito e a multiplicidade à qual é aplicado; e assim por diante. Assim a substância e o ser são o princípio e o fim de todo o conceito. A substância é inaplicável a um predicado, e o ser é-o igualmente em relação a um sujeito. Sec. 6. Os factos agora coligidos constituem a base para um método sistemático de pesquisa com vista a descobrir quaisquer conceitos universais elementares que possam intermediar entre a pluralidade da substância e a unidade do ser. Foi mostrado que a ocasião da introdução de um conceito universal elementar é, ou a redução da pluralidade da substância à unidade, ou a junção à substância de outro conceito. E foi ainda mostrado que os elementos conjuntos não podem ser supostos sem o conceito, enquanto o conceito pode geralmente ser suposto sem estes elementos. Agora, a psicologia empírica descobre a ocasião de introdução de um conceito, e apenas temos de averiguar que conceito já reside nos dados que são unidos ao de substância pelo primeiro conceito, e que não pode ser suposto sem este primeiro conceito, para encontrar o conceito seguinte na ordem ao passarmos do ser à substância.
