The contributions made by the Italian mathematician Mario Pieri (1860-1913) are well known in the field of geometry. Pieri was a member of the School of Peano at the University of Turin. There he became engaged both by the problems of logic and by the philosophical aspects of Peano's epistemology. This article was motivated by Pieri's address given at the University of Catania, at the inauguration of the 1906-1907 academic year. My aim is to identify Pieri's philosophical premises as found in his works and to present them in the general framework of the historical development of the Peano School.
