Into the Diagram. On the Legacy of Gilles Châtelet Between Pragmatism and Mathematics
Châtelet’s Enlarging Intelligence
We present a short global appraisal of Châtelet’s program to enlarge intelligence, and we study in detail a previously unpublished worksheet where Châtelet mentions splitting, inverting, and augmenting, as essential features in the appearance of new knowledge. We compare those local findings with similar ideas in Novalis and Florensky, and we build on them to offer a methodological understanding of analogical thinking and creativity.

Mathematical, Artistic and Literary Traces in Reason/Heart (Razón/Co‐razón) Transitions
This article studies some mathematical concepts which may be ramified in cultural environments, particularly in music and literature. The notions of definability (What may we capture with language, what escapes us?), representation (Which archetypes may be projected onto the world, which types arise from such projections?) and categoricity (Which unitary concepts govern the multiplicity of languages and images?) are narrowly linked with the essen…

Peirce’s Reception in Colombia
As has happened in Latin America, and more generally in the Hispanic World, pragmatism came to our countries mainly through William James and John Dewey (particularly, through his influence in education). Studies in Spanish on Peirce were scarce and superficial until the end of the 20th century. The situation in Colombia follows that pattern. The first valuable Colombian study on Peirce came from Mariluz Restrepo (1993), a fine introduction to Pe…
Plasticity and Creativity in the Logic Notebook
Peirce’s architectonics, far from rigid, is bended by many plastic transformations, deriving from the cenopythagorean categories, the pragmaticist (modal) maxim, the logic of abduction, the synechistic hypotheses and the triadic classification of sciences, among many other tools capable of molding knowledge. Plasticity, in turn, points to interlacements between mathematics and art, and shapes some associated conceptual forces in the boundary of t…
A New Analytic/Synthetic/Horotic Paradigm
We study a contemporary need to complement analytic philosophy with pendular, synthetic approaches. We provide new definitions of the dyad analytics/synthetics and complete it with a natural third, horotics. Some historical trends to support a synthetic/horotic paradigm are studied: (i) Peirce’s ideas around his logic of continuity – non Cantorian continuum and existential graphs – emphasizing the importance of mathematical gestures, (ii) Gödel’s…
Synthetic philosophy of contemporary mathematics
Existential graphs and proofs of pragmaticism
We show how Peirce's architectonics folds on itself and finds local consequences that correspond to the major global hypotheses of the system. In particular, we study how the pragmaticist maxim (i.e., the pragmatic maxim fully modalized, support of Peirce's architectonics) can be technically represented in Peirce's existential graphs, well-suited to reveal an underlying continuity in logical operations, and can provide suggestive philosophical an…
Peirce and Latin American “Razonabilidad”
After Modernism and Postmodernism, Transmodernism has been advocated as a more faithful coining for our plastic and transient age. Introduced by the Spanish philosopher Rosa María Rodríguez Magda, the term “Transmodernity” – both diachronic and methodological – hopes to reintegrate many awkward postmodern differentials, to balance some supposed breaks with more in-depth sutures, to counter relativism with a topological logic where some “universal…
