Presents the publication of a set of writings by the British philosopher, historian, and archaeologist R G Collingwood. This book highlights a range of Collingwood's intellectual engagements, their integration, and their relevance to areas of debate in the fields of philosophy, cultural studies, social and literary history, and anthropology. The appearance in print in a scholarly and scrupulously edited form of Collingwood's folktale manuscript is very much to be welcomed as something of an event in Collingwood studies. The editors have done a superb job in presenting the folktale manuscript in a highly accessible form and in linking it with a number of other previously unpublished manuscripts and papers on broadly connected themes.
