- Title
Between Frege and Peirce: Josiah Royce's Structural Logicism.
- Authors
CROUCH, J. BRENT
- Abstract
The article discusses the little-known thought of 19th- and early 20th-century U.S. philosopher Josiah Royce (1855-1916) pertaining to logicism, the theory that mathematics is an extension of logic. Royce's views are distinguished from those of German mathematician Gottlob Frege, considered one of the founders of logicism, and compared to those of fellow U.S. philosopher Charles S. Pierce and British mathematician A. B. Kempe. Royce's version of logicism is termed by the author "structural logicism."
