Collingwood and the Reenactment of Past Thought

TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Collingwood and the Reenactment of Past Thought

Thursday 22 February 2024 is the 135th anniversary of the birth of Robin George Collingwood (22 February 1889 - 09 January 1943), better known to posterity as R. G. Collingwood, who was born in Cartmel, just south of the Lake District, on this date in 1889.

Collingwood made philosophy of history respectable in the Anglophone world, and set it on a distinctive course of development. Collingwood’s work has been the inspiration of many who have critiqued and criticized without following his doctrines in detail, but there is much in Collingwood’s work that deserved and rewards careful study.
