Hopkins Wrote "Dr. Schiller As A Man And Friend", Pacific Philosophical Quarterly 19 (1):12 (1938). "Formal Logic" Is A Long, Well Reasoned, Articulate And Unsympathetic Discussion And Rejection Of Logic As An Idea. Per Wikipedia, Ferdinand Canning Scott Schiller, Fba (German: [?1864 ?1937), Usually Cited As F. C. S. Schiller, Was A German-British Philosopher. Born In Altona, Holstein (At That Time Member Of The German Confederation, But Under Danish Administration), Schiller Studied At The University Of Oxford, Later Was A Professor There, After Being Invited Back After A Brief Time At Cornell University. Later In His Life He Taught At The University Of Southern California. In His Lifetime He Was Well Known As A Philosopher; After His Death, His Work Was Largely Forgotten. Schiller's Philosophy Was Very Similar To And Often Aligned With The Pragmatism Of William James, Although Schiller Referred To It As "Humanism". He Argued Vigorously Against Both Logical Positivism And Associated Philosophers (For Example, Bertrand Russell) As Well As Absolute Idealism (Such As F. H. Bradley). The Absolute Ideas, Easier To Understand, Won Out, As Always; Religion Trumps Reason.
