James Pillans
Prof James Pillans (1778–1864) LLD FRSE was a Scottish classical scholar and educational reformer.
==Early life==
Son of James Pillans, was born at Edinburgh in April 1778. His father was a printer, an elder in the Anti-Burgher branch of the Scottish Secession Church, of Adam Gib, and a liberal in politics. Pillans was educated at the Royal High School, Edinburgh, under Alexander Adam, of whom he subsequently contributed a biography to the ''Encyclopædia Britannica''. He was second in the rector's class, after his close friend Francis Horner; another classmate was John Archibald Murray.
His father wished to apprentice him to a paper-stainer, but Pillans went on to Edinburgh University, where he graduated M.A. on 30 January 1801. He became a pupil of Andrew Dalzel, was influenced by Dugald Stewart, and attended the chemistry lectures of Joseph Black. He was a member of the "dialectic society" founded by "Burgher" divinity students in the university. After graduation he acted as tutor, first to Thomas Francis Kennedy at Dunure, Ayrshire, next in a family in Northumberland, where he had the opportunity of speaking French. He then moved to Eton, as a private tutor.〔
