History as Re-enactment: R. G. Collingwood's Idea of History
Dray, William H. (Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, University of Ottawa, Canada)
A central motif of R. G. Collingwood's philosophy of history is the idea that historical understanding requires a re-enactment of past experience. This text analyzes that idea; explores the limits of its applicability; and clarifies the relationship between it and other key Collingwoodian ideas.
