Examines how the idea of history has evolved from the time of Herodotus to the twentieth century, and offers the author's own view of what history is. This edition provides an introduction which discusses how scholars have responded to his classic over the years.
The Idea of History is the best-known work of the great Oxford philosopher, historian, and archaeologist R. G. Collingwood. Published posthumously in 1946, it examines how the idea of history has evolved from the time of Herodotus to the twentieth century, and offers Collingwood''s own view of what history is. This revised edition has a substantial new introduction which discusses how scholars have responded to Collingwood''s classic over the last fifty years. It also makes available for the first time some of Collingwood''s lectures on the philosophy of history - essential for a fuller understanding of his thought, and in particular for the interpretation of The Idea of History itself.
