商品描述: Professor Collingwood has written the most interesting book that has come out of Oxford for some time. Himself a distinguished ornament of the Oxford scene, an eminent authority on Roman Britain ("a field in which I was an acknowledged master," he tells us a little unnecessarily), an active, and what is not always the case in Oxford, a publishing philosopher, he has yet remained a curious, aloof, somewhat puzzling figure. "I wish to goodness you would come off the fence," commented a former tutor of his, a still more professional philosopher, rather angrily. With this book the Professor has certainly come off the fence, and with a bounce that will resound. He writes with passion and elegance the story of his mental life; and because he is a brilliant and gifted man, with the widest sympathies of mind, he is quite clear about that himself, perhaps a trifle too candid about it - that story reflects some of the profoundest intellectual difficulties of our age. In consequence his book extends far beyond the field of Oxford in its interest; it is a document of our time, much as John Stuart Mill's Autobiography was, though more fully, of his.

R. C. Collingwood (1889 to 1943) was an English philosopher and historian. He was Wayn flete Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy at Oxford University.
