Oh no, Gary Hatfield did it again! I was thinking of writing a project on the notion of attention at the turn of the nineteenth century. Turns out that I should have looked at the eighteenth instead. Truly we go forward in history only by going backward!

I’m going to try using BSky (also) to share some Peirce quotes out of context. Here is today’s: “Pure femininity can be conceived in a general way, but it cannot be realized even in consistent imagination. As for pure masculinity, it is an absurdity and nonsense, vox et praeterea nihil.”

Found another nineteenth-century philosopher who makes perception historical.

❗️A bunch of really cool papers that puts the discourse on values in science in historical perspective. Étienne Raduly and myself wrote chapter 10 on the philosophy of Charles W. Morris: “Value as Meaning and as Behavior” 🦫🦫🦫

I am happy to say that our volume on the history of value-laden ideals of science is out today! I am grateful to the wonderful contributors for their really nice chapters! First of its kind, check it out! www.routledge.com/Histories-of...

In the 1930s, a group of European philosophers fled fascism and reshaped American philosophy. Why did logical positivism have such an impact on US thought? And why did it play a central role in the culture wars of the 1950s and 1960s? Released today! Logical Positivism: An American History (1/3)

Yesterday was Day 1 of Descartes Lectures with amazing @serenekhader.bsky.social ! Particularly illuminating was her analysis of oppression as “social inclusion in unequal terms,” explaining why oppressed groups may comply with the society that’s oppressing them @tilburgphilosophy.bsky.social

Very pleased to see the cover of my first book — hopefully out in a few months! Although the design is Peirce-centred, I tried my best to put the guy in relation to Scottish, English, German, and other American philosophers & psychologists. Enjoy! #Peirce #psychology #pragmatism #hps #philosophy
