Reviews

“An original, insightful and clearly argued presentation of Collingwood’s metaphysics. The first part makes a convincing case for the underlying unity of Collingwood’s work. The second part explores relations between Collingwood’s work and that of a number of other philosophers, including Whitehead, Ayer, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, Berlin, Kolakowski, Strawson and Taylor.” Stephen Leach, Keele University, UK “In this ground- breaking exploration of R.G. Collingwood’s metaphysics, Guido Vanheeswijck masterfully unveils the depth and complexity of one of philosophy’s most underappreciated minds. Through meticulous research and compelling argumentation, this work not only resurrects Collingwood’s philosophical legacy but also cements his place as a central figure in the development of modern metaphysical and historical thought.” Karim Dharamsi, Mount Royal University, Canada
