Charles Peirce's Account Of Truth And Reality In "How To Make Our Ideas Clear"

Abstract: 10 pages in length. While Peirce extends his gratitude toward the efforts of logicians for their task of clarifying the concept of truth and reality, he nonetheless appreciates what philosophers and other thinkers have done over the ages to challenge the finality with which these logicians have rendered their definitions. Pointing to such classical theorists as Descartes, Leibnitz and Socrates, Peirce escapes the boundaries inherent to logical thinkers and expands his own understanding of such esoteric concepts as truth, perception, belief and reality to incorporate a significantly more sprawling discernment. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
