"Quiet, man," the poet replied, "I am very glad to have escaped from all that, like a slave who has escaped from a savage and tyrannical master." I thought at the time that he was right, and I still do, for old age brings peace and freedom from all such things. When the appetites relax and cease to importune us, everything Sophocles said comes to pass, and we escaped from many mad masters.

A Conceptual Genealogy of the Pittsburgh School: Between Kant and Hegel by Carl B. Sachs
Unlike the Vienna Circle or the Frankfurt School, the Pittsburgh School was never self-consciously constituted as a coherent or even semi-coherent group by adopting this label.
