Published posthumously in 1964, this volume contains a fantastic collection of essays by R. G. Collingwood on the subject of art and it's relationship with philosophy. Robin George Collingwood, FBA (1889 - 1943) was an English historian, philosopher, and archaeologist most famous for his philosophical works including The Principles of Art (1938) and the posthumously-published The Idea of History (1946). This fascinating volume will appeal to those with an interest in Collingwood's seminal work, and is not to be missed by students of philosophy and art. Contents include: Ruskin not a Philosophical Writer, Ruskin's Attitude towards Philosophy, On the Philosophy of Non-Philosophers, Logicism and Historicism, Ruskin as Historicist, The Anti-Historicism of Ruskin's Contemporaries, The Unity of the Spirit: Corollaries and Illustrations, Ruskin and Browning, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume today in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
