A Study Of The Metaphysical Categories Of Charles Sanders Peirce, Oscar Edwyn Luttrell Jul 1950

A Study Of The Metaphysical Categories Of Charles Sanders Peirce, Oscar Edwyn Luttrell

Master's Theses

Little is known about the life of Charles Sanders Peirce and perhaps even less about his system and place in the history of American philosophical thought. Somewhat superficially we recognize that he influenced the pragmatism of William James, but even here, were the facts known, the influence would be exceedingly remote, owing to James's own misinterpretation of' Peirce's leading ideas. Prof. Perry says that: "Perhaps it would be correct, and just to all parties, to say that the modern movement known as pragmatism is largely the result of James's misunderstanding of Peirce." James himself at one time stated that Peirce …

The Influence Of Plato On Philo, Ephraim Shimoff May 1946

The Influence Of Plato On Philo, Ephraim Shimoff

Master's Theses

Very little is known about the life of Philo-Judaeus of Alexandria, but from his writings we see that he was one of the most spiritually-minded thinkers of his time. He came from an influencial Jewish family and was trained in Greek as well as in Jewish learning. A citizen of the place which was at once the chief heme of the Jewish Dispersion and the chief censer of Hellenistic culture, he owes his position in the history of religious thought which we find in his voluminous writings, to that remarkable fusion of Judaism and Hellenism. He sought to bring harmony …

The Logico-Mathematical Philosophy Of Bertrand Arthur Russell, Elie Maynard Adams Apr 1944

The Logico-Mathematical Philosophy Of Bertrand Arthur Russell, Elie Maynard Adams

Master's Theses

The purpose of this study is to give a critical exposition of Bertrand Arthur Russell’s logico-mathematical philosophy. The thesis, which is the core of all his work on this subject, is the contention that logic and pure mathematics form a continuous whole, or as Russell himself states it : “They differ as boy and man: logic is the youth of mathematics and mathematics is the manhood of logic."
