===Commentary Note 11.3===

Having spent a fair amount of time in earnest reflection on the issue, I cannot see a way to continue my interpretation of Peirce's 1870 LOR, to master the distance between his conventions of presentation and my present personal perspectives on relations, without introducing a few interpretive anachronisms and other artifacts in the process, and the only excuse that I can make for myself is that at least these will be novel sorts of anachronisms and artifacts in comparison with the ones that the reeder may alreedy have seen.  A poor excuse, but all I have.  The least that I can do, then, and I'm something of an expert on that, is to exposit my personal interpretive apparatus on a separate thread, where it will not distract too much from the intellectual canon, that is to opine, the "thinking panpipe" that we find in Peirce's 1870 LOR.

The interpretation of Peirce's 1870 "Logic of Relatives" can be facilitated by introducing a few items of background material on relations in general, as regarded from a combinatorial point of view.

 

Ripped from the pages of my dissertation, then, I will lay out some samples of background material on "Relations In General", as spied from a combinatorial point of view, that I hope will serve in reeding Peirce's text, if we draw on it judiciously.
