R.G. Collingwood's name is known to history educators around the
world yet few have charted the depths of his ideas on what it means
to be educated in history. In this book Marnie Hughes-Warrington
begins with the aspects of Collingwood's work best known to
educators - re-enactment and the historical imagination - and
locates them in the widening philosophical contexts of his and
other writer's views on empathy, sympathy, imagination, education
and civilisation. Revealed are dynamic concepts of the a priori
imagination and history education that play a vital role in the
achievement of an 'historical civilisation'. This is an end
Collingwood wants all of us to achieve, thus making the question'
How good an historian shall I be?' one of the most important we can
ask.
