Description:
"This book provides an exposition and critical examination of Collingwood's philosophy of history, in which Collingwood's views are read in the light of his metaphilosophy. Collingwood's philosophy of history is also located in relation to recent and current philosophy. Although Stephen Leach argues that Collingwood's conception of the subject matter of history may require some revision, he is generally sympathetic to the aims and methods of his project; indeed he hopes to demonstrate that these aims and methods are still of great value."--Jacket.
