Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
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.

Recenzii

'This is a big book, and a difficult one, but for anybody who takes history seriously, it is essential.'
'Welcome reprint of the classic lectures delivered by an Oxford philosopher-historian 60 years ago. A most influential book.'
