Constellation Similarity Assertions

A contemporary of John Ruskin and John Stuart Mill, Frederic Harrison strongly influenced English politics and philosophy in the mid-nineteenth to early twentieth-century. The positivist movement gained prominence through Harrison's political activity, writings and teachings. He was also very active in the labor movement and fought for greater worker's rights in England. Harrison was introduced to positivism as a student at Oxford. Venerating humanity over deity, positivism created controversy in the predominantly Christian England. Harrison was a true believer and champion of the philosophy throughout his life. He published numerous books, articles and introductions to works by other positivists. He resided in England his entire life and continued to publish books into his nineties. He died in Bath, England in 1923.
