An important lawyer and philosopher, Green, a friend of Holmes and Peirce, was a leading member of the Metaphysical Club and one of the founders of pragmatism. As a lawyer, his "favorite target was legal formalism-the belief that legal concepts refer to something immutable and determinate. His criticism of legal formalism was Wright's criticism of Spencer's evolutionary philosophy: he thought it treated what were merely tools of analysis as though they named actual entities" (Menand). Green's was the penultimate edition of Story's Agency, which was first published in 1839. The final edition, by C.P. Greenough, was published in 1882. Menand, The Metaphysical Club 224.
