The term ''exponentiation'' is more generally used in mathematics for operations that involve taking a base to a power, and is slightly preferable to ''involution'' since the latter is used for different concepts in different contexts.  Operations analogous to taking powers are widespread throughout mathematics and Peirce frequently makes use of them in a number of important applications, for example, in his theory of information.  But that's another story.

: CP 1.292.  It can further be said in advance, not, indeed, purely a priori but with the degree of apriority that is proper to logic, namely, as a necessary deduction from the fact that there are signs, that there must be an elementary triad.  For were every element of the phaneron a monad or a dyad, without the relative of teridentity (which is, of course, a triad), it is evident that no triad could ever be built up.  Now the relation of every sign to its object and interpretant is plainly a triad.  A triad might be built up of pentads or of any higher perissad elements in many ways.  But it can be proved &mdash; and really with extreme simplicity, though the statement of the general proof is confusing &mdash; that no element can have a higher valency than three.

A less catchy way of saying "meaning is a privilege not a right"

: A less catchy way of saying "meaning is a privilege not a right" would most likely be "meaning is a contingency not a necessity". But if I reflect on that phrase, it does not quite satisfy me, since a deeper lying truth is that contingency and necessity, connections in fact and connections beyond the reach of fact, depend on a line of distinction that is itself drawn on the scene of observation from the embodied, material, physical, non-point massive, non-purely-spectrelative point of view of an agent or community of interpretation, a discursive universe, an engauged interpretant, a frame of at least partial self-reverence, a hermeneutics in progress, or a participant observer.  In short, this distinction between the contingent and the necessary is itself contingent, which means, among other things, that signs are always indexical at some least quantum.

: Would the Kripke conception of the "rigid designator" be an instance of the "many worlds domination"?  I was struck by your speaking of the "patchwork or piecewise" approach as well in that it seemed to me you might be expressing the same general idea that I have usually thought of in terms of contextualism instead:  I mean the limits it puts upon what you can say a priori if you really take contextualism seriously, which is the same as recognizing indexicality as incapable of elimination, I think.

  −

  −
I can't really speak for what Kripke had in mind,
  −
but I have a practical acquaintance with the way
  −
that some people have been trying to put notions
  −
like this to work on the applied ontology scene,
  −
and it strikes me as a lot of nonsense. I love
  −
a good parallel worlds story as much as anybody,
  −
but it strikes me that many worlds philosophers
  −
have the least imagination of anybody as to what
  −
an alternative universe might really be like and
  −
so I prefer to read more creative writers when it
  −
comes to that. But serially, folks, I think that
  −
the reason why some people evidently feel the need
  −
for such outlandish schemes -- and the vast majority
  −
of the literature on counterfactual conditionals falls
  −
into the same spaceboat as this -- is simply that they
  −
have failed to absorb, through the fault of Principian
  −
filters, a quality that Peirce's logic is thoroughly
  −
steeped in, namely, the functional interpretation
  −
of logical terms, that is, as signs referring to
  −
patterns of contingencies. It is why he speaks
  −
more often, and certainly more sensibly and to
  −
greater effect, of "conditional generals" than
  −
of "modal subjunctives". This is also bound up
  −
with that element of sensibility that got lost in
  −
the transition from Peircean to Fregean quantifiers.
  −
Peirce's apriorities are always hedged with risky bets.

92. &nbsp; Demonstration of the sort called mathematical is founded on suppositions of particular cases.&nbsp; The geometrician draws a figure;&nbsp; the algebraist assumes a letter to signify a single quantity fulfilling the required conditions.&nbsp; But while the mathematician supposes an individual case, his hypothesis is yet perfectly general, because he considers no characters of the individual case but those which must belong to every such case.&nbsp; The advantage of his procedure lies in the fact that the logical laws of individual terms are simpler than those which relate to general terms, because individuals are either identical or mutually exclusive, and cannot intersect or be subordinated to one another as classes can.&nbsp; Mathematical demonstration is not, therefore, more restricted to matters of intuition than any other kind of reasoning.&nbsp; Indeed, logical algebra conclusively proves that mathematics extends over the whole realm of formal logic;&nbsp; and any theory of cognition which cannot be adjusted to this fact must be abandoned.&nbsp; We may reap all the advantages which the mathematician is supposed to derive from intuition by simply making general suppositions of individual cases.

<p>In reference to the doctrine of individuals, two distinctions should be borne in mind.&nbsp; The logical atom, or term not capable of logical division, must be one of which every predicate may be universally affirmed or denied.&nbsp; For, let <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> be such a term.&nbsp; Then, if it is neither true that all <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> is <math>\mathrm{X}\!</math> nor that no <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> is <math>\mathrm{X},\!</math> it must be true that some <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> is <math>\mathrm{X}\!</math> and some <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> is not <math>\mathrm{X};\!</math> and therefore <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> may be divided into <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> that is <math>\mathrm{X}\!</math> and <math>\mathrm{A}\!</math> that is not <math>\mathrm{X},\!</math> which is contrary to its nature as a logical atom.</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>Such a term can be realized neither in thought nor in sense.</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>Not in sense, because our organs of sense are special &mdash; the eye, for example, not immediately informing us of taste, so that an image on the retina is indeterminate in respect to sweetness and non-sweetness.&nbsp; When I see a thing, I do not see that it is not sweet, nor do I see that it is sweet;&nbsp; and therefore what I see is capable of logical division into the sweet and the not sweet.&nbsp; It is customary to assume that visual images are absolutely determinate in respect to color, but even this may be doubted.&nbsp; I know no facts which prove that there is never the least vagueness in the immediate sensation.</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>In thought, an absolutely determinate term cannot be realized, because, not being given by sense, such a concept would have to be formed by synthesis, and there would be no end to the synthesis because there is no limit to the number of possible predicates.</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>A logical atom, then, like a point in space, would involve for its precise determination an endless process.&nbsp; We can only say, in a general way, that a term, however determinate, may be made more determinate still, but not that it can be made absolutely determinate.&nbsp; Such a term as &ldquo;the second Philip of Macedon&rdquo; is still capable of logical division &mdash; into Philip drunk and Philip sober, for example;&nbsp; but we call it individual because that which is denoted by it is in only one place at one time.&nbsp; It is a term not <i>absolutely</i> indivisible, but indivisible as long as we neglect differences of time and the differences which accompany them.&nbsp; Such differences we habitually disregard in the logical division of substances.&nbsp; In the division of relations, etc., we do not, of course, disregard these differences, but we disregard some others.&nbsp; There is nothing to prevent almost any sort of difference from being conventionally neglected in some discourse, and if <math>I\!</math> be a term which in consequence of such neglect becomes indivisible in that discourse, we have in that discourse,</p>
 +
 
 +
<p align="center"><math>[I] = 1.\!</math></p>
 +
 
 +
<p>This distinction between the absolutely indivisible and that which is one in number from a particular point of view is shadowed forth in the two words <i>individual</i> (&#964;&#8056;&nbsp;&#7940;&#964;&#959;&#956;&#959;&#957;) and <i>singular</i> (&#964;&#8056;&nbsp;&#954;&#945;&#952;&#8127; &#7957;&#954;&#945;&#963;&#964;&#959;&#957;);&nbsp; but as those who have used the word <i>individual</i> have not been aware that absolute individuality is merely ideal, it has come to be used in a more general sense.</p>

The <i>number</i> of an absolute term, as in the case of <math>I,\!</math> is defined as the number of individuals it denotes.
