Peirce was not the first, but he was the best.  The first was
Aristotle, and the medieval Scholastics were the most important
until Peirce came along.  The 20th century dilettantes haven't
even begun to catch up with CSP.  By diletantes, I mean anybody
who thinks that Frege was the greatest logician since Aristotle.
(That means, of course, that Frege was one of the dilettantes.)
