Introduction

R. G. Collingwood (1889–1943) was a major philosopher whose work in aesthetics and in the philosophy of history is rightly regarded as seminal. In the fields of metaphysics, political philosophy and, to a lesser extent, the philosophy of nature, Collingwood’s writings continue to stimulate reflection and controversy. His writings on theology and the philosophy of religion retain their originality and significance. Collingwood was, too, a respected archaeologist whose investigations in the area of Romano-British archaeology were extensive, thought-­provoking and, in some cases, well ahead of their time. As this Research Companion shows, Collingwood’s published and unpublished writings in philosophy, history and archaeology, including autobiographical and miscellaneous material, are diverse and wide-­ranging. When we add to this large corpus of work the letters he wrote to a great variety of correspondents, many of whom were influential figures in the scholarly and academic life of the twentieth century, we arrive at a veritable Who’s Who of figures in Collingwood’s own circle – and beyond. Faced with a lifetime’s activity of such volume and intensity, students of his life and thought, both experienced and beginners, will surely appreciate a helping hand. By bringing together these many strands of Collingwood’s writings in one volume, it is the primary aim of the Research Companion to provide that help, structured in the most useful way possible. The need to catalogue exactly what Collingwood wrote and when he wrote it was recognised soon after his death, and all subsequent bibliographers owe a debt of gratitude to the first workers in this field: foremost amongst these are T. M. Knox, ‘Notes on Collingwood’s Philosophical Work: with a Bibliography’, Proceedings of the British Academy, 29, 1943, 469–75, and I. A. Richmond, ‘Appreciation of R. G. Collingwood as an Archaeologist’ and ‘R. G. Collingwood: Bibliography of Writings on Ancient History and Archaeology’, Proceedings of the British Academy, 29, 1943, 476–85. Bibliography, however, is a provisional science; its results are dependent on the material to hand. New discoveries have to be recorded and made available to researchers. All bibliographers build on the efforts of their predecessors and this work is no exception. Our forerunners in this enterprise include W. J. Van Der Dussen, History as a Science, The Philosophy of R. G. Collingwood, Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, The Hague, 1981, Bibliography I, II, III and IV, pp.445–71; Donald S. Taylor, R. G. Collingwood, A

Collingwood A Bibliographic Checklist, The Philosophy Documentation Center, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio, 1993. For Collingwood’s manuscripts and papers in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, see the Catalogue of the Papers of R. G. Collingwood (1889–1943) (Dep. Collingwood 1–28), compiled by Ruth A. Burchnall, Bodleian Library, Oxford, 1994. As will be apparent from these references, it is close on two decades since the last major bibliography was published. In that time a significant quantity of writing by Collingwood, particularly reviews and letters, has come to light, and previously unpublished work by him in the philosophy of history, political philosophy and aesthetics has appeared in published form. Much new and often innovative writing on Collingwood, in particular scholarly monographs and articles, has been added to the already substantial secondary literature. Some of these contain highly specialised bibliographies of work in their particular fields of philosophy, history and archaeology. Our objectives in this Research Companion are, first, to provide a systematic, comprehensive, accurate and detailed listing of all Collingwood’s writings, including all the new material known to date; second, to provide an up to date bibliography of secondary works on Collingwood; and third, to aid the understanding of Collingwood’s intellectual biography by providing a calendar of his life and activities, together with a Family Tree describing his antecedents and family background. We will feel we have succeeded if, at the very least, we encourage all those who are interested in Collingwood to return to his work with a deeper appreciation of its scope and complexity. We are grateful to all those who have assisted with this project, particularly: R. G. Collingwood’s daughter, Mrs Teresa Smith; the many librarians and custodians of Collingwood material, including letters, who have answered our queries; our editors at Bloomsbury, Rhodri Mogford and Emma Goode, whose patience knows no bounds; and all those friends and family members whose enthusiasm for talking about the minutiae of Collingwood’s life and writings at any hour of the day or night almost equals our own. James Connelly is grateful for the support of the University of Hull which enabled him to visit archives at St Andrews, Cardiff, Oxford, Kendal and Ambleside and to employ Stephen Leach on archival work. The authors would be grateful to hear of any omissions from the primary bibliography and any additions to the secondary bibliography. JC, PJ, SL

A Brief Biography R. G. Collingwood was a noted philosopher, archaeologist and historian. As a philosopher his reputation rests mainly on his work in aesthetics and the philosophy of history. As an archaeologist and historian he worked mainly on Roman Britain. The connections between Collingwood’s researches in both of these fields are many and various. Readers may therefore find a short biographical account of his life and main works useful. Robin Collingwood* was born on 22 February 1889 in the village of Cartmel Fell at the southern end of Windermere. He was the son of William Gershom and Edith Mary Collingwood, who were both artists newly resident in the Lake District. When Collingwood was a young boy his parents moved to Lanehead, a house on the edge of a different lake, Coniston. Family life at Lanehead reflected the interests and values of his parents. Art, in the shape of music, sculpture and painting, was ever present and Collingwood, together with his three sisters, was encouraged to develop the skills of self-­expression and appreciation: such skills imply standards and standards imply discipline. Art was Collingwood’s first introduction to a life lived in common with others. He learnt that knowing meant doing, and doing would be impossible without the recognition that some achievements are better than others and that some represent an excellence which is unconditional. The belief that life should be shaped by art reflected the principles of John Ruskin, the great Victorian artist and social critic, who lived at Brantwood, a short walk away from the Collingwood home. W. G. Collingwood had been Ruskin’s secretary and in the course of his early upbringing his son grew to take this ideal to heart. The power of art to educate and transform remained a constant feature in all of Collingwood’s writings; but with the dawning of reflective thought he saw with rapidly increasing clarity that there were questions which art was unable to answer. His early schooling took place mainly at home and his years at Rugby School were rewarding only in the most formal and minimal sense. If Rugby was Collingwood’s educational engine, providing him with a formal training in Latin and Greek, his inspiration remained Lanehead and the example given to him by his parents. Listening to his mother playing the piano, as the sun rose over the lake in front of the family home, left Collingwood with an attachment to music that he never lost. The personal experience of following his father’s investigations in local history and archaeology sparked an involvement with history which deepened over time to become a major preoccupation. As with art, *  He took the second name George on his baptism in 1905.

however, history raised puzzles that it was unable to solve and so Collingwood’s turn towards philosophy came naturally. Philosophy, art and history came to be the subjects that would dominate Collingwood’s life. They are the pillars on which his later academic reputation rests. In 1908 Collingwood arrived at his father’s old college, University College, Oxford, to begin his university education. By his own account he soaked himself not only in the life and literature of ancient Greece and Rome, but also in fine art and music, joining in discussions on contemporary philosophy and the problems of religious belief, as well as the contentious political and economic issues of the day. To many at the time it came as no surprise that, just over three years later, shortly before graduating with a congratulatory First in Classics, Collingwood was appointed a Fellow in Philosophy at Pembroke College, Oxford. This was a post he would hold until 1935 when he moved to Magdalen College, Oxford to replace J. A. Smith, a philosopher Collingwood greatly admired, as the holder of the Chair of Metaphysical Philosophy. What would now be called Collingwood’s teaching and research was a reflection of his startling intellectual range and ambition. At Oxford, Collingwood was uniquely a teacher of both archaeology and philosophy. An early disciple of realism in philosophy, Collingwood soon became dissatisfied with its simplistic account of knowledge and its inability to explain any form of human communication beyond the most elementary. Human understanding is diverse, both in theory and practice, so it is the job of philosophy to uncover the forms of understanding which make human beings what they are. Art, religion, science, history and philosophy itself are distinct modes of thought, each with its own presuppositions. Collingwood was a polymath by inclination and upbringing; however, in the early 1920s, under the influence of the fashionable school of Italian Idealist philosophers Croce, de Ruggiero and Gentile, he saw the need to become one from philosophical choice. But Neo-Hegelianism, the creed seeping into Oxford thought from across the Channel, was anathema to the empiricist mainstream of English philosophy which followed Bertrand Russell in his view that the methods of philosophy were abstract and analytical. For Collingwood, however, a philosophy modelled on the procedures of scientific enquiry was, particularly in the aftermath of a devastating world war, precisely not what was needed. Written under the influence of Italian idealism, Speculum Mentis (1924) was Collingwood’s first book to be published after the First World War. It reflected a shift from the realism present in his youthful first work, Religion and Philosophy (1916), to a philosophical idealism which was intended both to transcend the weaknesses of realism and to find room for its obvious strengths. In politics, no less than in philosophy, Speculum Mentis was a work of reconciliation, but in 1924 Collingwood’s philosophy of practice was largely undeveloped and so in a series of important articles in the second half of the decade he began to examine economics and politics from a philosophical point of view, building the foundations for the historically informed philosophical liberalism which is his defining stance in political philosophy. The pattern of Collingwood’s working life was set by his appointment to the Fellowship at Pembroke. Writing and lecturing during term times was balanced with archaeological work during the vacations, when he would get his hands dirty in directing excavations mainly at Roman sites in the north of England. Collingwood’s

philosophical account of history went hand in hand with this detailed experience of how knowledge in history was actually acquired. Such work, on Hadrian’s Wall and Roman inscriptions (to take two of the better known examples), was both time-­ consuming and exhausting, but the many books and articles he published subsequently laid the basis both for Collingwood’s reputation as one of the foremost historians of Roman Britain and for many of his insights into how historical method works. Collingwood’s reflections on history throughout the 1920s told him that realism as an account of historical method was a failure. Developing an alternative would take much of Collingwood’s time in the following decade. Indeed, the distinctive insights of Collingwood’s own philosophy of history, that history is both a systematic form of knowledge and autonomous, emerged gradually in lectures and papers written during the 1930s and then collected posthumously as The Idea of History (1946). In Speculum Mentis the nature of the unity of the human mind was Collingwood’s main preoccupation. Even so, during the 1930s the idea of a phenomenology of human knowledge slipped into the background of Collingwood’s thinking, with philosophy and its relations with history receiving greater prominence and direction. It is not that philosophy defects in favour of history but rather, as the elegantly argued Essay on Philosophical Method (1933) with its stress on the doctrine of the scale of forms clearly shows, that neither philosophy nor history can be construed independently of the other. This position is stated quite explicitly in his Autobiography (1939), where he speaks of searching for a rapprochement between philosophy and history and between theory and practice. If these are Hegelian aims it nonetheless remains the case that Collingwood’s treatment of them is distinctively his own. In the years following the publication of An Essay on Philosophical Method Collingwood’s attempts to chart the relations between philosophy and history take more than a single route. His lectures on nature, delivered in 1933–4 and posthumously published as The Idea of Nature (1945), replicate his technique in his philosophy of history. Historical periods are characterised by different conceptions of nature, as they are of history. This does not mean that the philosophy of science becomes the history of science or that the philosophy of history becomes the history of philosophy. Philosophy has its own distinctive character and mode of operation. Indeed, no rapprochement with history would be possible if that were not the case. Later, in An Essay on Metaphysics (1940), Collingwood examined how history was related to metaphysics, resisting the claim that metaphysics is a science of pure being and insisting instead that metaphysical questions are historical questions. In this book the ideas which make up a given way of life or intellectual discipline are analysed further into absolute and relative presuppositions. Metaphysics is analysis, but historical analysis of a special kind. The nature of history was Collingwood’s main preoccupation in philosophy during the mid-1930s, but it was not his only one. Aesthetics continued to exert a strong fascination over him and so in 1937, turning once again to the nature of art and the role played by art in human education and development, he wrote The Principles of Art (1938), the work which contains the mature statement of Collingwood’s expressionist view of art. The distinction it formulates between art and craft is often seen as basic to any aesthetics worth the name. Moreover, there is much in the book, on the philosophy

of language and on philosophical psychology (to take two examples), which is valuable to philosophers quite independently of their role in Collingwood’s own theory of art. Collingwood’s title indicates his belief that art has principles which can be revealed through philosophical investigation and that it is the job of the philosopher to tell us what these are. It is worth noting that The Principles of History (1999) operates in a similar way. This was written in 1939 but left uncompleted, and for many years was lost. It was intended by Collingwood to be his final work in the philosophy of history. Illness, travel and political events are the governing features of Collingwood’s last years. Events in the form of the rise of Fascism and, as Collingwood thought, the weakness of the western democracies in facing up to it, are the essential political background to Collingwood’s later writings, in particular The New Leviathan (1942), his masterpiece in political philosophy. These later writings are not, however, isolated from his earlier work or from his philosophy of history. In The Idea of History Collingwood took the view that human understanding follows the model of historical understanding. He also argued that there is nothing in this claim which requires that human action is always at the mercy of events or that our place in history is pre-­ determined. It is in this spirit that Collingwood challenged the policy of appeasement adopted by the Chamberlain government as the only method for dealing with Nazi Germany, and wrote The New Leviathan to convince his fellow citizens that in the face of barbarism a rational defence of liberalism is both necessary and possible. There is no doubt that Collingwood’s worsening health throughout the second half of the 1930s influenced what he decided to write about and when, if not the content of his writing. An Autobiography (1939) was written in its author’s belief that he did not have long to live, and he passed his work on Roman inscriptions to another archaeologist to complete. This was later published as The Roman Inscriptions of Britain (1965), with R. P. Wright. Recuperation from illness and travel are often found together. Travel gave Collingwood the opportunity to write as well as to recover from the series of strokes which he suffered during the late 1930s. His long sea voyage to the Dutch East Indies produced An Essay on Metaphysics (1940) and a diary of his experiences, the Log of a Journey to the East Indies 1938–9, now published for the first time in An Autobiography and Other Writings (2013). The First Mate’s Log of a Voyage to Greece in the Schooner Yacht Fleur de Lys in 1939 (1940), although not itself a philosophical work, is full of insights into Collingwood’s life and thought, as well as being a vivid record of immediate pre-­war experience. The New Leviathan (1942), bravely written while its author was experiencing, especially towards the end of its composition, increasing physical frailty, was Collingwood’s final work. The completion of The New Leviathan stands as a testimony to Collingwood’s powers of endurance, to his energy as a philosopher and to his belief that philosophy should not be practised too far from the challenges of life. With his text for troubled times finished and ready to be published Collingwood moved back to Lanehead, the house near Coniston where his life’s direction had been formed, and where he died on 9 January 1943.

Twenty-­three year later, in re-­ reading his earlier writings for his Autobiography, he wrote on his working copy that ‘This book was written in (and before) 1914 (begun 1912) and represents the high-­ water mark of my earliest line of thought – dogmatic belief in New Realism in spite of an insight into its difficulties which I think none of my teachers shared . . . The whole thing represents a point of view I should entirely repudiate, and its complete failure with the public gives me great satisfaction.’ 1917  3 June.

I think, to judge by what I hear, that it comes at the right moment, when most people in Oxford who were realists are giving up their old position and the younger men have broken away from that school: so it may be that I shall find people willing to listen to me. If that is so, I shall think about publishing the “Libellus”.’ 1920  19 November. Presented paper on ‘Plato’s Theory of Ideas’ to the Pembroke College Philosophical Society. 1920  24 November.

J. E. Hull, the father of the Roman archaeologist M. R. (Rex) Hull. The explanation for publishing this important article in a seemingly obscure journal is both personal connection and also that the journal, although not nationally known, was read by local working archaeologists. RGC was proud of his hypothesis that the wall was intended to be an elevated sentry-­walk and referred to it as an example of the logic of question and answer in An Autobiography. 1921  1 September.

A Hostile Treatment of Realism; 2. Nature of Sensation and Thought; 3. History and Science; 4. Space and Time, and critical studies on recent writings. This was presumably to have been drawn from various essays that RGC had written over the previous five years, some no longer extant. 1922  14–16 July. Attended Joint Session of the Mind Association and Aristotelian Society at Manchester.

went on to point out that Austin, Spencer & Green had repeated on a small scale, & with less intelligence, the process of thought to be found in Hobbes, Rousseau & Hegel. Thus the solution of the latter was superior to that offered by Green. Both had observed that sovereignty contains an element of force & an element of freedom, but it was Hegel alone who could effect a true synthesis of the two.’ 1923  14 June. Pembroke College Philosophical Society. Symposium on ‘Realism’. RGC ‘brought the discussion to a close by relating in a very interesting manner the history of his conversion from the Realistic School’. This conversion, as his notes on his copy of Religion and Philosophy testify, was crystallised shortly after completing Religion and Philosophy. By 1917, RGC commenced a serious study of Croce, Gentile and Ruggiero. 1923  13 July. Attended Joint Session of the Mind Association and the Aristotelian Society in Durham. (Attendees included A. N. Whitehead, A. O. Lovejoy, G. E. Moore, H. W. Carr, Léon Brunschvicg, J. Laird, C. E. M. Joad, L. A. Reid, Leon Roth, J. A. Smith, N. K. Smith and J. H.

Speculum Mentis published. RGC was disappointed with the reviews: however, disappointing reviews by non-­comprehending critics were offset by other developments. He remarked to Ruggiero later in the year that ‘I find that Speculum Mentis is exciting a good deal of attention . . . and is regarded as possibly opening a new movement in English Philosophy . . . As T.H. Green was to Kant and Hegel, so is R.G.C. to Croce.’ Perhaps RGC was also bearing in mind John Mabbott’s initiative, in which he took Speculum Mentis as the basis for a weekly discussion class: ‘I got an artist friend to read the chapter of Art, and the college tutors in Chemistry, History and Theology to read their relevant chapters; and each of them to attend the discussion on his chapter. It worked well. Collingwood’s writing is clear and alive; and my colleagues not only understood it, but enjoyed the experience. For the last chapter entitled “Speculum Speculi”, on philosophy, I got Collingwood himself to come along. He was a success with my pupils – we had to get him back for a second session. He was delighted with my application of his principle of first-­hand experience’ (J.D. Mabbott, Oxford Memories, pp.75–6). 1924  21 March. Attends a meeting of the OUP at which a series of ‘World’s Manuals on Philosophy’ is proposed. It is suggested that RGC write on Aesthetics and the Philosophy of History.

Meeting of Haverfield Bequest Committee. Report on meeting at the Clarendon Press. States that the estimated cost of production was £3,000, and that the Press would be prepared to begin the making of line-­blocks from Mr. Collingwood’s drawings if a subsidy were guaranteed by the Committee.

Delivered lectures on the ‘Philosophy of History’. 1926  January. ‘Economics as a Philosophical Science’ published. Between 1925 and 1928 RGC wrote extensively on ethics, political theory and economics. These writings developed the views presented in his lectures on moral philosophy and exemplified the method employed there. The culmination of these writings was The New Leviathan. 1926  29 January. Read ‘Burnswark Reconsidered’ to the Dumfries and Galloway Natural History and Antiquarian Society. 1926  February. Read paper on ‘Materialism’ to The Group (written 27 December 1925). 1926  15 February. ‘Some Perplexities About Time’ read to the Aristotelian Society, 21 Gower Street, London. J. A. Smith in chair.

Staying in Die, France. Met Vernon Blake in Les Baux, ‘here we found Vernon Blake, an eccentric English artist, engineer and philosopher of gigantic size and childlike manners, who lives in a 14th Century house with a French peasant wife; and we spent most of our time at Le Baux arguing with him and looking at his work’. 1926  Trinity Term. ‘Moral Philosophy’ lectures delivered. 1926  Trinity Term. ‘Philosophy of History’ lectures delivered.

1926  Trinity Term. Lectures on ‘Roman Britain’ delivered. 1926  31 May. Elected as member of the Archaeological Institute of the German Empire; accepted the invitation on 4 June. 1926  6 September. Reads ‘Maiden Castle in Stainmore’ at the site. 1926  Michaelmas Term. ‘Moral Philosophy’ lectures delivered. ‘Much re-­written and expanded . . . with considerable alterations on points of theory.’ 1926 October to January 1927  Translating Ruggiero’s Storia del liberalismo europeo, published in 1925. RGC’s high opinion of this book is reflected both in his own writings during this period and in his explicit anti-Fascism, which emerged at this time. On 1 August he had written to Kenneth Sisam at the Clarendon Press stating that Ruggiero ‘is one of the most brilliant historical and philosophical writers of Italy; the most important philosophical figure in the post-Crocean generation, and especially interested in politics and their history – to the extent of being a persecuted anti-Fascist’. He firmly identifies his own political philosophy with Ruggiero’s in a letter of 18 November where he says: ‘The political principles expounded and implied are at every point my own, and expressed with a justness and completeness that leave me nothing to do but express my complete agreement . . . And as history, I can only say that this is how history ought to be written.’ In his later Preface to the English translation he summarises Ruggiero’s (and by extension, his own) political philosophy thus: ‘Liberalism . . . begins with the recognition that men, do what we will, are free . . . But this freedom is not possessed at birth; it is acquired by degrees as a man enters into the self-­conscious possession of his personality through a life of discipline and moral progress. The aim of Liberalism is to assist the individual to discipline himself and achieve his own moral progress . . . These principles lead in practice to a policy that may be called . . . Liberal; a policy which regards the State not as a vehicle of a superhuman wisdom or a superhuman power, but as the organ by which a people expresses whatever of political ability it can find, and breed, and train within itself.’ 1926  22 October. Meeting of the Pembroke College Philosophical Society. ‘In discussion, the President [RGC] submitted that only knowledge can have reasoned grounds, belief cannot . . . Belief is a more elementary activity than reasoning. In all cases we must begin by believing without understanding. But, he was careful to emphasise, one is never certain what it is that one is believing. If one can answer the question ‘what is it you believe?’ then one has the recipe for turning belief into knowledge. There are always good grounds for every belief but they are not discoverable until the belief has been analysed & so become knowledge.’ This theme is further developed in ‘Reason is Faith Cultivating Itself ’ and Faith and Reason; and later refined in the theory of absolute presuppositions propounded in An Essay on Metaphysics. 1926  15 December. ‘Faith’ paper read to The Group.

Wrote ‘The Idea of a Philosophy of Something, and, in Particular, a Philosophy of History’ while visiting Ruggiero in Rome. This was one of a series of essays which began to crystallise his thinking on philosophy and philosophical method 1927  April. Met Giovanni Gentile in Rome and wrote to Ruggiero that, ‘One evening we went, by invitation, to visit Gentile . . . who was very cordial and gave me a copy of the new edition of his Studi Vichiani; we spoke mostly of education in Italy and England, of the organisation of elementary schools, and so forth; he asked me whether I had studied the present political situation in Italy, and I replied that a foreigner staying three weeks in a country could not hope to form a just opinion of its political situation; he spoke of you, as if to discover my present relation to you, and I said that you were one of my greatest friends and that I was staying in your house. Apart from these matters, we spoke altogether of education and things like that.’ By this time RGC was a committed anti-Fascist and was decidedly wary of Gentile, despite his continued indebtedness to his philosophy. 1927  Trinity Term. ‘Philosophy of History’ lectures delivered. 1927  21 June.

Prichard, who, though (as is the Oxford fashion) he has hardly published anything, is one of our most brilliant teachers and most devoted students of philosophy. I did not know that he wanted this professorship; but now that I know that he did, I am very well pleased that he was elected rather than myself.

1928  April. ‘Outlines of a Philosophy of History’ written at Le Martouret, Die, Drôme. This was significant as a key part of the development of his philosophy of history – he records it as such in his Autobiography – but also shows his thinking on philosophical method and the nature of philosophy and also his work on the philosophy of Kant during this period. He uses the Kantian categories to organise the essay and states that ‘this essay deals with what appear to the writer the most important questions in the theory of history’. They are arranged under four heads, which, out of compliment to the Kantian critiques, are called Quality, Quantity, Relation, and Modality. At around this time he also translated the Preface to the first and second editions of Kant’s Kritik der reinen Vernunft and also wrote a comment on the Preface. 1928  24 May. RGC’s mother died at Coniston. 1928  Trinity Term. Delivered lectures on the ‘Philosophy of History’. 1928  18 May. Lecture on ‘Hadrian’s Wall’, King’s College. 1928  13 June. Appointed a delegate of the Clarendon Press. 1928  14 June. Wrote to Macmillan resigning as a reader of manuscripts on being appointed a delegate to the Clarendon Press. 1928  25 June. Professor Ernst Fabricius, the German archaeologist and expert on Roman borders (Limes) visited Durham, where he received an honorary degree on the 26th. 1928  28 June. Joined tour of Hadrian’s Wall with Fabricius, R. C. Bosanquet and F. G. Simpson. On this day the hill near T38b ‘was solemnly christened Mons Fabricius, in honour of the Director of the German Limes Commission, by the party which took him along the Wall in 1928’ (1930 Handbook to the Pilgrimage of Hadrian’s Wall). 1928  6 July. C & W Summer meeting. At Burgh-­by-Sands gave a description of the Roman site; at Bowness-­on-Solway read a paper on ‘The Western End of Hadrian’s Wall’; at Herd Hill read ‘Roman Signal Stations on the Cumberland Coast’. 1928  12 July. Fabricius spent the day on site at Birdoswald. 1929  Probably June. Dinner with his archaeologist friend C. E. Stevens at the Spread Eagle at Thame. The flamboyant John Fothergill, a friend of both Oscar Wilde and WGC in his Oxford days, was the innkeeper. In his An Innkeeper’s Diary, Fothergill wrote that ‘I asked R.G. Collingwood . . . to dinner as a return for Collingwood’s father’s giving me tea at Coniston thirty six years ago. Collingwood is one of those two or three selected super-­beings, each of whom is called the cleverest man in Oxford. The last time I saw him was at this tea when Mr. Ruskin sent me over to see his father and his

magnificent and enormous water-­colours. Prof. C. must have been a pioneer in the Bohemian or Chelsea style, for he had a pink-­checked tablecloth and they ate in the hall! Never having seen the like of it, I was rather shocked, but what put the lid on it was when a little maid to mind the children sat down along with us and worst of all the little Collingwood’s jam-­covered face. When I talk to this learned man, I can see on his clean and incisive face jam even now’ (pp.258–9). 1929  7 July. A mock altar was set up at Birdoswald Roman fort for a press photograph and a votive offering was made by RGC and Eric Birley. Shortly after, RGC left the site and travelled back to Oxford. On arrival home at 15 Belbroughton Road he found a telegram (addressed to ‘Mr Bollingwood’) informing him that when the altar was removed it was found to have been resting upon a slab with an inscription dating to the reign of Severus (according to the telegram, a ‘Severan blab’). To the excavators’ embarrassment it was face upwards, and should have been noticed earlier. 1929  Hilary Term. Lectured on ‘Roman Britain’. 1929  24 February. Delivered lecture on ‘Form and Content in Art’, to the Royal Institute of Philosophical Studies in London. 1929  17 April. Hotel Bristol, Frankfurt, Germany.

Elected to the Council. 1929  Trinity Term. ‘Philosophy of History’ lectures delivered: Part II written during the term. 1929  Trinity Term. ‘Introduction to Ancient Philosophy’, a lecture delivered on behalf of the Regius Professor of Greek (Gilbert Murray). 1929  8 May. Read a paper on ‘Effective Symbols’ to The Group. 1929  24 May. Presented a paper on ‘Cause and Effect’ to the Pembroke College Philosophical Society. The President [RGC] ‘pointed out that in its early use, “causa” in Latin is a previous event, in consideration of which and as a result of which, an agent takes a course of action. The word, however, from being the occasion of a mental choice of action has developed a material meaning in natural science as that which of itself necessarily produces some effect. Mill however advanced the view that a cause is the invariable antecedent to its effect. The President then proceeded to demonstrate to those members who were prepared to accept this, by the example of a pair of scales, and of a goods train, that the true cause of any effect is the immediate direct cause and not the so-­called ultimate cause, and that the immediate cause is synchronous with its

37

effect. Mill was led to his theory of antecedence, by his theory of knowledge as sensation; he is excused to some extent by the traditional use of cause as a previous event relatively to which an agent chooses action. This brought the President to the point where he made his important distinction between two uses of the word cause, between its use as the inevitable sequence of two events according to a law of nature, and its use as a sequence of action determined by the activity of the human will. He finally disposed of the difficulty of the plurality of causes by claiming an equal plurality of effects corresponding to and inseparable from the causes.’ This shows RGC’s longstanding interest in the issue of causation in history. 1929  14 June. Oxford Delegates’ meeting. It was decided that a sub-­committee should be formed under the chairmanship of G. N. Clark to oversee production of the Oxford History of England: J. L. Brierley, C. R. M. F. Cruttwell, RGC and R. W. Chapman. 1929  July. ‘Form and Content in Art’ published. 1929  Michaelmas Term. ‘Moral Philosophy’ lectures written and delivered. 1929  Autumn. ‘During the autumn of 1929, R.G.

Wheeler and Parker Brewis. 1930  23 April. Spring meeting of C & W, Carlisle. RGC gave a report on ‘The Recent Discovery of Roman Objects at Carlisle’. A resolution was sent to the Prime Minister and leader of the opposition concerning the conservation of Hadrian’s Wall. 1930  28 April. Letter concerning Hadrian’s Wall conservation sent to George Lansbury from members of Oxford University; it was published in The Times on 3 May. 1930  May. Delivered the J. H. Gray Lecture on ‘Recent Advances in the Study of Roman Britain’ at the University of Cambridge. 1930  The following appeared in The Times on 3 May 1930: ‘Hadrian’s Wall: An Appeal from Oxford University. The follow letter has been addressed to Mr. Lansbury, First Commissioner of Works, by members of Oxford University:- University of Oxford, April 28 Sir, – As members of the University of Oxford, we venture to express to you the hope that some means may be found to limit the proposed extension of quarrying works in the immediate neighbourhood of Hadrian’s Wall. The stretch of the Wall, together with its associated works of the Vallum and the Military Way, running from Chollerford to Gilsland, is, in our opinion, one of the most valuable of our national monuments. Both its beauty and its significance have already been impaired by the existing quarries; and we feel that the time has come when a binding and permanent limitation should be imposed on further disfigurement. We realise the importance of providing work, to the extent already contemplated, for unemployed men in the Newcastle district; but we submit that it would be disastrous to permit the unlimited extension of such works, and so to leave the way open for the eventual destruction of a great historical monument.’ Signatories included the Master of Pembroke, A. D. Lindsay, RGC, Gilbert Murray, J. L. Myres and Cyril Bailey. 1930  30 June to 4 July. Leading the Pilgrimage to Hadrian’s Wall during which he gave an address at Armstrong College, Newcastle on the present state of the problems concerned with Hadrian’s Wall. RGC and F. G. Simpson acted as guides at Tullie House museum; RGC was guide at Burgh by Sands; Herd Hill, RGC spoke on the line of the wall along the Cumberland coast. At Chesterholm a postcard was written and sent to Fabricius from Carlisle. 1930  31 August. Ruggiero arrives in Oxford and stays with the Collingwoods at 15 Belbroughton Road. 1930  1–6 September.

Read paper on the ‘Historical Background of New Testament Thought’ to The Group. 1930  October. Elected by the Board of the Faculty of Arts (Literae Humaniores) as a member of the Committee for Classical Archaeology. 1930  December. Delivered lecture on ‘Science, Religion and Civilization’. This was ‘The third of a series of lectures under that title delivered in Coventry Cathedral, Oct–Dec 1930.’ Joseph Needham and B. H. Streeter were the other speakers. 1930  December. Chesters Trust established. RGC was a trustee, with Sir George MacDonald, R. Holland-Martin, Parker Brewis and R. C. Bosanquet. 1930  Re-­appointed as the Society of Antiquaries’ representative on the Council of the British School at Rome. 1931  23–28 February. ‘Aesthetic Theory and Artistic Practice’ written. This was a long and intricate essay on aesthetics, RGC’s most focused and substantial discussion since the publication of Outlines of a Philosophy of Art. 1931  11 March. Gave lecture on ‘Ten Years Work on Hadrian’s Wall’ to the Society for the Promotion of Roman Studies, London. 1931  17 March. ‘Aesthetic Theory and Artistic Practice’ delivered to the British Institute of Philosophical Studies, London. The version as delivered was a truncated version of the original. It is clear that RGC was using the opportunity of writing the piece to develop his thinking on aesthetics more generally. 1931  April–June. Seriously ill with chicken pox and complications. He was seriously ill for a whole year. This was the beginning of the illness that was to trouble RGC for the rest of his life. He wrote to T. M. Knox on 12 May that: ‘I have been ill for several weeks and it’s gone to my brain and made me quite unable to think . . . I hope to recover to be able to read philosophy again, but I dare say not for months yet’. 1931  19 May. Elected as Member of Council of the Society for the Promotion of Roman Studies for three years from June 1931. 1931  October. John Fothergill, landlord of the Spread Eagle at Thame, brought to fruition an idea he had pondered for some while, which was to ask a number of authors to write a short story around the same plot; at H. R. Barbor’s suggestion

they were published together as The Fothergill Omnibus. The eighteen authors included G. K. Chesterton, L. P. Hartley, Storm Jameson and Rebecca West. Collingwood’s contribution was ‘The Showman’s Speech’: he used the occasion to elucidate the distinction between classical and romantic art and the relation between form and content in each. 1931  27 October. British General election in which a Conservative-­dominated National Government was elected with Ramsay MacDonald as Prime Minister. Collingwood commented to his father that ‘the election [of the National Government] has proved that even at this stage in its history the English people can’t be bribed by panis et circenses; and it’s very comforting to see that the “working” man and “working” woman will vote against the people who pose as their friends and for the people who promise them lower doles, higher prices, and solvency. We shall see whether the promises are redeemed; but if a country gets the government it deserves, this electorate ought to get a good one.’ At this time RGC was writing to his father every day and continued to do so until his death on 1 October 1932. 1931  No lectures delivered in Michaelmas Term because of illness, but Collingwood was taking pupils. 1931  20 November. Asked Pembroke College for leave of absence from his duties as Fellow and Tutor for the Hilary Term 1932 on grounds of ill health. 1932  Elected President of C & W. 1932  Much of the summer and early autumn devoted to writing ‘Introduction to the Prehistory of Cumberland and Westmorland’. 1932  12 January. Report to the Faculty of Literae Humaniores on Quinquennium as University Lecturer. 1932  23 January to 20 February. Travelled to Italy. Visited the British School in Rome, Terracina, Mintorno, Napoli, Pesto, and Sicily. On 20 February travelled to Greece (Athens, Crete). Back in Oxford on 22 February. 1932  March. Roman Britain (2nd edn) published. 1932  10 June. Agreed to edit a new edition of J. Collingwood Bruce’s Handbook to the Roman Wall, ‘keeping as far as possible the quaint old-­fashioned style and character of the old book’. 1932  27 June. Engaged in philosophical correspondence with J. A. Smith concerning H. A. Prichard’s British Academy lecture, ‘Duty and Ignorance of Fact’. RGC subjects the lecture to critical analysis and adds some interesting comments of his own which illuminate both his developing conception of duty and his sense of being in alliance

with Smith against the ‘Minute Philosophers’ of whom he was later to speak in An Autobiography. ‘The only duties of which I am genuinely aware are duties to do things to myself, e.g. to become by my own act wise or just or courageous or temperate . . . when I find P. utterly ignoring all the inward or immanent side of moral conduct, and overlooking the very possibility that one may do things to oneself, I suspect that the kind of excellence which he is discussing is not duty at all . . . but a technical or utilitarian or economic excellence; and I find it as difficult to discuss with him the problems of duty as I understand them, as I should find it to carry on an aesthetic discussion with a person whose stock example of the beautiful was a picture of a pretty girl. I have not found myself very often confronted by a problem of duty. My ordinary life seems pretty well disposed of when I have considered it under the headings of what I want to do, what it is expedient to do, and what it is politic to do. Sometimes I have come up against a question of a quite different kind from any of these: a question in which the issue is, rather, what kind of person I am to be.’ He signs off his letter with the comment that ‘if you and I are to be fellow-­conspirators against the régime of the minute philosophers we ought, I suppose, to indulge in a certain amount of conspiratorial correspondence’. 1932  Summer. Moral Philosophy lectures re-­written. 1932  Michaelmas Term. Lectured on moral philosophy. 1932  1 October. W. G. Collingwood died in sight of the ‘Old Man of Coniston’. 1932  24 October. Gave paper to the OU Archaeological Society on ‘Recent Work on Hadrian’s Wall’. 1932  November. Began writing An Essay on Philosophical Method. The roots of the book lay in the methodological introduction to the lectures on moral philosophy, which had gradually become more substantial and extensive and eventually demanded a life of its own. The introduction was dropped from the lectures from 1933 onwards. Writing was completed by June 1933. 1932  17 November. Read paper on ‘War in its Relation to Christian Ethics with special reference to the Lambeth report 1930’ to The Group. This is an interesting and important critique of what RGC saw as woolly and wishful thinking concerning the origins of war and attempts to eliminate it. In his paper he quotes, and roundly condemns as a piece of claptrap, the phrase ‘only a spiritual renaissance can ensure the peace of the world’. Remembering this in An Autobiography he comments scathingly that ‘babblers talked about the necessity for a change of heart. But the trouble was obviously in the head. What was needed was not more goodwill and human affection, but more understanding of human affairs and more knowledge of how to handle them’ (p.92). 1932  12 December. Aristotelian Society meeting in London. Gilbert Ryle in chair. Susan Stebbing on ‘The Method of Analysis in Philosophy’. Discussants: Hannay, Ryle,

Helen Knight, Miss Whetnall, Mr Western, Mr Isaacs and H. F. Hallett. RGC was in Lanehead, Coniston, preparing exhibits for the Armitt Museum at Ambleside and was not able to be present, but he took a keen interest in the paper and devoted a section of chapter VII, entitled ‘Analytic Philosophy’ of An Essay on Philosophical Method to discussion of it. RGC was probably the first philosopher to refer, in print, to the emerging school as ‘analytic philosophy’. 1933  January. Wrote Preface to ninth edition of J. Collingwood Bruce, Handbook to the Roman Wall. 1933  Hilary Term. Lectured on ‘Roman Britain’. 1933  1 February. ‘The State of Britain at the time of the Anglo-Saxon Settlements’ – contribution to a discussion at the Royal Archaeological Institute. 1933  22 March. Opening of the Armitt Museum, Ambleside. RGC contributed a considerable amount of material, including a model of the Galava Roman Fort at Ambleside, which he made when conducting excavations. 1933  Trinity Term. Lectured on ‘Philosophy, its Nature and Method’. This was from the draft of An Essay on Philosophical Method, which he was still writing at this time. 1933  Trinity Term. Gave a party for Adam von Trott. 1933  June. An Essay on Philosophical Method finished and sent to press. 1933  Summer. Lectures on moral philosophy revised and half-­rewritten, with additions and alterations to the 1932 lectures. 1933  26 August. Excavation of the Roman Villa at Ditchley, Oxon, begins. RGC is chairman of the excavation committee. 1933  September. ‘Notes Towards a Metaphysic’: five notebooks, dated between September 1933 and May 1934, dealing with the philosophy of nature and related topics. These extensive notebooks exhibit his concurrent interests in philosophical method, cosmology, philosophy of history, together with comments and criticisms of other philosophers, such as Gentile and Alexander. 1933  September. An Essay on Philosophical Method published. 1933  Michaelmas Term. ‘Moral Philosophy’ lectures delivered. 1933  13 October. J. S. Haldane gave his inaugural address on ‘Vision of Brightness and Colour’, to the Edinburgh Royal Medical Society. RGC had taken part in Haldane’s experiments which provided material for this talk.

1933  December. ‘Outline of a Theory of Primitive Mind’ written. This was read to the Pembroke College Philosophical Society as ‘Freud’s Theory of the Mind’ on 25 January 1934. 1933  25–26 December. ‘The Metaphysics of F.H. Bradley: An Essay on “Appearance and Reality” ’ written. This illustrates RGC’s confidence that his philosophical approach as developed in An Essay on Philosophical Method would prove to be a fruitful way of reconciling philosophical points of view. In the paper, RGC interprets Bradley’s doctrine of the degrees of truth and reality as an example of a scale of forms. 1933  Resigns as editor of C & W. 1934  Wrote the section on ‘Britain’ in Tenney Frank (ed.), Economic History of Ancient Rome. This was one among a number of substantial commissions, including his contributions to the Cambridge Ancient History, which RGC worked on at this time. Their culmination was the appearance of the first volume of the ‘Oxford History of England’, Roman Britain and the English Settlements in 1936. He comments, in An Autobiography, that ‘The invitations to write these . . . large-­scale works came at exactly the right moment. I had been long enough in my laboratory; I wanted to exchange it for my study. It was time to begin arranging and publishing the lessons which all this archaeological and historical work had taught me about the philosophy of history. But I could not desert Roman Britain without saying good-­bye; and a full-­length book about it would not only do that, it would serve to display in a concrete form the principles of historical thinking as I now understood them’ (p.121). This presaged his return to serious work in the philosophy of history. 1934  15 and 17 January. ‘The Nature of Metaphysical Study’, two lectures delivered at Balliol College, arranged by T. M. Knox. These lectures employ the approach to philosophy outlined in An Essay on Philosophical Method; they also contain important sections discussing metaphysics as the study of fundamental assumptions. They draw together the work on fundamental beliefs worked out in 1926–8 with his current approach to philosophical method and anticipate the later account provided in An Essay on Metaphysics which he began to work on at the end of 1937. 1934  Hilary Term. Lectured on ‘Roman Britain’. 1934  4 February. ‘Jane Austen’ paper read to the Johnson Society, Pembroke College. This is a revised version of the paper previously given in the early 1920s. 1934  July. Elected as a Fellow of the British Academy. 1934  September. ‘The Idea of Nature’ (originally Nature and Mind) lectures written September to October for delivery in Michaelmas Term, 1934.

1934  Michaelmas Term. ‘The Idea of Nature’ lectures delivered. 1934  2 November. Collingwood is considering a 12-volume ‘History of Philosophy’ to be published by the Clarendon Press. 1934  Summer and Autumn. RGC was chairman of the excavation committee that organised the excavation of the Roman villa at Ditchley Park. Collingwood and Bersu were both credited with advice and assistance in the preparation of the report. 1935  Undertook much work on the classification of Romano-British brooches, producing a book length manuscript on the subject, replete with many drawings. 1935  18 January. Produced Report as University Lecturer in Philosophy and Roman History. ‘Time has been spent about equally on the two subjects: the academic year 1932–3 chiefly on philosophy with some Roman history, 1933–4 almost exclusively on philosophy, 1934–5 almost exclusively on Roman history.’ 1935  Hilary Term. Lectured on ‘Roman Britain’. 1935  11 February. Samuel Alexander wrote a reference for RGC’s application for the Waynflete Professorship of Metaphysical Philosophy. RGC had known Alexander personally since they worked together in the Admiralty during the First World War. They admired each other’s work greatly – but certainly not uncritically. RGC was delighted with Alexander’s reference and informed him that ‘the electors were, I learn, a good deal tickled that a candidate habitually labelled Idealist should send in, as his only testimonial, one from our Leading Realist’ (Letter to Alexander, 30 March). 1935  22 February (his birthday). RGC wrote his application for the Waynflete Chair. ‘If I were elected to this chair I should endeavour to liquidate my historical work, partly by publishing my results, and partly by handing them over to persons whom I have trained for the purpose, and should turn my attention to the philosophy of history as I understand that term . . . I have conceived the project of a History of Philosophy, in ten or a dozen volumes by as many authors, to be written for the most part by Oxford residents . . .’ 1935  5 March. Letter to the University Registrar with application for the Waynflete Chair. 1935  14 March. Isaiah Berlin wrote of the Oxford scene that: ‘We are in the throes of elections of philosophy professors, J.A. [Smith] and Joachim are going, Collingwood and Price are nuclei, the slave market is heaving like a jelly and the logical positivists, Braithwaite, Ayer and such are spreading havoc wherever possible’ (Isaiah Berlin: Letters 1928–1946, p.117).

1935  23 March. Received letter stating that the electors had appointed him to the Waynflete Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy, ‘to hold office from the 21st April 1935’. 1935  8–18 April. Lectures on ‘Central Problems in Metaphysics’ written. 1935  21 April. Took up position as Waynflete Professor. 1935  5 May. Preached sermon on ‘Rule Making and Rule Breaking’, in St Mary the Virgin’s Church, Oxford, at the invitation of F. A. Cockin. 1935  9 May. Start of correspondence with Gilbert Ryle arising out of Ryle’s article in Mind (April), ‘Mr. Collingwood and the Ontological Argument’. 1935  19 May. Read a paper on ‘Method and Metaphysics’ to the Jowett Society. 1935  6 June. Advised the Clarendon Press to accept The Political Philosophy of Hobbes by Leo Strauss. 1935  2–5 July. C & W excursion. RGC active throughout: gave a talk on ‘The Roman Fort and Settlement at Maryport’. 1935  26 August. Work began on a Roman villa in Watt Wells Field South at Lodge Farm, Ditchley. RGC was chairman of the excavation committee; excavation conducted by C. A. Ralegh Radford. 1935  Michaelmas Term. Lectures on ‘Nature and Mind’ delivered. 1935  Signed petition to the Forestry Commission organised by the Friends of the Lake District objecting to the afforestation of parts of the Lake District. 1935  27 October. T. M. Knox presented a paper on ‘Hegel’s Philosophy of Nature’ to a meeting of the Oxford University Philosophical Society. Attended by G. R. G. Mure and Theodor Adorno; possibly also attended by RGC. 1935  28 October. Inaugural lecture on ‘The Historical Imagination’ delivered at the Examination Schools, 5.30pm. The event was attended by G. R. G. Mure, T. M. Knox, J. A. Smith, H. H. Joachim and others, and possibly also by Theodor Adorno who was studying in Oxford at the time. He was registered as an advanced student, based at Merton College, but under the supervision of Gilbert Ryle. 1935  December. Wrote ‘Reality as History’ in response to Samuel Alexander’s essay ‘The Historicity of Things’ (a contribution to the festschrift for Ernst Cassirer, Philosophy and History, edited by Raymond Klibansky and H. J. Paton, which RGC read for the Clarendon Press and later reviewed).

R. G. Collingwood: A Research Companion

1936  A. J. Ayer’s Language, Truth & Logic published. Ayer was fond of telling the story that ‘Gilbert Ryle told me that on a visit to Blackwell’s he had overheard Prichard and Joseph saying that it was scandalous that the book had found a publisher. This does not imply that they had read it. Collingwood, who happened also to be in the shop, turned to them and said “Gentlemen, this book will be read when your names are forgotten.” I suspect that this was less a tribute to me than an expression of his contempt for them. He did, however, take the book seriously enough to devote part of his lectures to refuting it. He ended one lecture by saying, “If I thought Mr Ayer was right, I would give up philosophy.” When the audience arrived for the next lecture, they were startled to find that it had been cancelled. The story ends lamely: he had been stricken with influenza’ (Ayer, Part of my Life, p.166). 1936  14 January. Preface to Roman Britain and the English Settlements written. 1936  27 January. ‘Can Historians be Impartial?’, paper read to the Stubbs Historical Society. 1936  Hilary Term. Lectures on the ‘Philosophy of History’ delivered. ‘Part I: History of the Idea of History’ written January–March for delivery at the same time. 1936  15 February. Abstract & Concrete: An Exhibition of Abstract Painting & Sculpture, 1934 & 1935 opens at 41 St Giles. This was the first international exhibition wholly devoted to abstract art in Britain. Nicolete Gray (née Binyon), who had been one of RGC’s pupils, stays at the Collingwoods for the duration of the exhibition. ‘After I went down I brought to Oxford an exhibition of Abstract Art in 1936, the first international exhibition (it went afterwards to London, Cambridge and Liverpool). It has become historic though modest at the time. I stayed with the Collingwoods, he helped unpack the work and he was the only person in Oxford who bought one (though he didn’t choose a very good one). The philosophers came and disputed. It was exciting. At that time there were no exhibitions of modern art in Oxford’ (personal correspondence). 1936  March. Wrote ‘Notes on the History of Historiography & philosophy of history’. The first part is entitled ‘Human Nature and Human History’ and consists of notes for his British Academy lecture of the same name. It is noteworthy that the schema for the argument in this draft was couched entirely in the language of Gentile’s philosophy, indicating that despite his severe political disapproval of Gentile, he still thought in terms clearly indebted to his philosophy. He states that ‘I want to hold that what is falsely called human nature is really human history. The fundamental theses of such a view would be something of this kind: (1) Human nature is mind . . . (2) Mind is pure act. Mind is not anything apart from what it does . . . (3) The pure act posits itself and its own presupposition at once. (4) Past time therefore is the schema of mind’s self-­knowledge.’ 1936  9 March. Wrote draft of ‘Human Nature and Human History’ written in preparation for the lecture ‘Human Nature and Human History’ which RGC presented at the British Academy later in the year.

1936  Roman Britain and the English Settlements published. 1936  Trinity Term. Lectures on the ‘Philosophy of History’ delivered: ‘Part 2: Metaphysical Epilegomena’. 1936  30 April. Sir Frederick Kenyon announced that he had appointed Professor Robin George Collingwood to be a Vice President of the Society of Antiquaries. 1936  May. Final draft of ‘Human Nature and Human History’ written. 1936  20 May. Lecture on ‘Human Nature and Human History’ delivered to the British Academy. 1936  June. ‘Who was King Arthur’, paper read to the Martlets, University College, Oxford. Collingwood made a significant contribution to discussions of the historicity of King Arthur in the pages of Roman Britain and the English Settlements. Post-­war discussions and argument concerning the historical existence of King Arthur were largely indebted to RGC’s pioneering work. 1936  23 July. George Trevelyan opened Housesteads Museum. It was to be run by Eric Birley. RGC spoke of the country as grossly undermuseumed. Museums were having to refuse valuable gifts; they could not display their possessions as they could not house their staffs. 1936  30 August. Started writing ‘Man Goes Mad’. This clearly shows his increasing political radicalisation and disgust with the contemporary political scene, his concern that civilisation itself was in danger, and his analysis of the destruction of the countryside and the importance of contact with the natural world as an integral part of sane and healthy life. Many of these themes were picked up later in The Principles of Art, The New Leviathan and elsewhere. 1936  Michaelmas Term. ‘Central Problems in Metaphysics’ lectures delivered. The subtitle was ‘Realism and Idealism’. RGC argued for a position he termed ‘objective idealism’. 1936  At this time Collingwood was becoming increasingly interested in anthropology and folklore. He reviewed E. E. Evans Pritchard’s Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande (1937) for the Clarendon Press and his private library shows that he acquired a number of books on these and related topics. In the light of this it can be seen that his work on the philosophy of history, Roman Britain, civilisation, folklore, the philosophy of art, mind and the emotions, and metaphysics as the search for absolute presuppositions forms an interconnected whole. 1936  17 October. Wrote to Brenda Seligman, the anthropologist, on kinship. She replied on the 21st and he concluded the correspondence on the 26th.

1936  21st October. Admitted as a member of the Folklore Society, London, at their Council Meeting. 1936  5th December. Wrote to the Secretary of the Folklore Society, Harold Coote Lake, asking for permission to do some reading in the Folklore Society’s Library. He spent 8–12 December at the Society’s Library. 1936  Michaelmas Term. ‘Philosophy of History’ lectures delivered: Part II. 1937  January. Published a lengthy and noteworthy review of R. Klibansky and H. J. Paton, Philosophy and History: Essays presented to Ernst Cassirer. RGC had been guiding this through the Clarendon Press for two years and it clearly resonated deeply with his philosophical concerns. He singled out for attention Alexander’s ‘The Historicity of Things’ (which had prompted his own ‘Reality as History’, in which he argues that timefulness is not sufficient for historicity, which requires thought and intention); Ortega’s ‘History as a System’ (which adumbrated thoughts concerning faith and civilisation which were increasingly part of his repertoire); and Gentile’s ‘The Transcending of Time in History’, into which he read his own doctrine of historical understanding as the re-­enactment of past thought. He treated Gentile as a philosopher without commenting on his Fascism, whereas in 1932 he had maintained that Fascism ‘has killed its own philosophy absolutely dead – if you doubt it read Gentile’s Filosofia dell Arte and blush.’ And later, in his Autobiography, he writes that ‘there was once a very able and distinguished philosopher who was converted to Fascism. As a philosopher, that was the end of him. No one could embrace a creed so fundamentally muddle-­headed and remain capable of clear thinking’. Admiring Gentile the philosopher while reviling Gentile the politician led to awkward inconsistencies in his evaluation of the relation between theory and practice. 1937  12 January. Took part in a discussion on ‘Roman Britain as a Subject of Teaching’ at the Royal Society and chaired the meeting. 1937  Hilary Term. ‘Nature and Mind’ lectures delivered. 1937  Hilary Term. ‘Roman Britain’ lectures delivered. 1937  Trinity Term. ‘Philosophy of History’ lectures delivered (Part 1). 1937  7 April. C & W Meeting. Opening of an exhibition at Tullie House illustrating the results of research on Hadrian’s Wall. RGC, Simpson and Richmond were the honorary curators of the museum. 1937  21 April. Chaired a meeting of the Folklore Society at which a paper on ‘Folk Pastimes: the Survival and Revival of Folk Art’ was read by John Fletcher. 1937  28 April. Delivered the second Horsley memorial lecture to the Society of Antiquaries of Newcastle upon Tyne.

1937  4 May. Wrote letter to the Clarendon Press containing an outline of The Principles of Art. On 14 May he explained that the book articulates more fully the conception of art stated in Outlines of a Philosophy of Art and also sets its context ‘in a general theory as to the structure of experience’. 1937  15 May. Collingwood wrote to the Honorary Secretary of the Folklore Society, H. Coote Lake: ‘I should like to read a paper to the Society: but I am in doubt whether the kind of thing I could contribute to its counsels would be of very much interest to it. I have no field-­work to report; but in my business as a philosopher I have to think over the general significance in human life of the facts which the Society deals with; and the time seems to me ripe for a revolt against the orthodox Tylor-Frazer theory of magic and the statement of a new one. I have worked out such a theory, and could easily state it in a paper, called something like “The Place of Magic in Human Life”. But would this be too philosophical for the Society?’ At some point it was agreed that he would address the Society on 16 February. 1937  19 May. Dined with the Council of the Folklore society at the invitation of H. Coote Lake. This was after a meeting of the Society, chaired by RGC. The paper, by Adrian N. Newell, was on ‘Celtic Religious Sculpture in Roman Gaul’. According to the minutes, several people took part in the discussion, ‘the chairman having dealt with several points in the paper’. 1937  19 May. Wrote to Margaret Lowenfeld about her forthcoming conference paper: ‘We all know what kind of world it is to which you refer as the reality (or objective reality) world. But what exactly is its title to the name reality? I am haunted by a suspicion that it has none except the fact that adult members of modern European society (or rather, the “educated classes” of that society) are agreed to treat it as real; that (in other words) it is the conventional world of a particular historically-­determined culture. It is not the world of adult human beings as such: not, e.g., of modern Indians & (educated) medieval Europeans.’ 1937  23 May. Margaret Lowenfeld and Dr Stead visited the Collingwoods for tea at their cottage in West Hendred. This was an opportunity for continued discussion of the points raised in their recent correspondence. 1937  5–24 July. Excavating King Arthur’s Round Table, Eamont Bridge, Cumberland. 1937  Summer. Writing The Principles of Art. This book was the culmination of his writings on the philosophy of art and drew together in a fresh form not only his thoughts on art, but also, as he suggested in his letter to the Clarendon Press, a general theory of the structure of experience. The structure and content of the book is heavily influenced by his current interest in anthropology, fairy tales and the role of magic in human life. 1937  22 September. The Principles of Art finished and sent to the Clarendon Press.

R. G. Collingwood: A Research Companion

1937  Michaelmas Term. Delivered lectures on ‘Philosophy of History’ and ‘Philosophy of Art’. 1937  October. RGC elected, by the Board of Literae Humaniores, to the Committee for Classical Archaeology. 1938  At the beginning of 1938 RGC was ‘entrusted . . . with the mission of asking Joachim to make preparations either for a reprint or for a new and revised edition’ of The Nature of Truth. 1938  9 January. Writing ‘Function of Metaphysics in Civilization’ (probably begun over Christmas). Lectured on ‘Central Problems in Metaphysics’ in Hilary Term 1938 and ‘metaphysics’ in Trinity Term 1939. The 1938 lectures may have been either these lectures or the lectures on ‘Realism and Idealism’ (otherwise entitled ‘Central Problems in Metaphysics’), or perhaps both. The 1939 lectures were from the manuscript of An Essay on Metaphysics which was complete in draft by the end of April that year. 1938  24 January. ‘On the So-Called Idea of Causation’ read to the Aristotelian Society, Russell Square, London. Professor J. MacMurray in chair. Discussion: J. MacMurray, Professor W. D. Ross, Professor Langley, Max Black, A. J. Ayer, R. B. Braithwaite, Mr. J. Lauwerys and Mr. N. Isaacs. RGC had begun considering issues of causation at least ten years previously and a version of this paper found its way into An Essay on Metaphysics. 1938  31 January. Gave a talk to the Oxford University Archaeological Society on ‘King Arthur’s Round Table’. 1938  5 February. Suffered a stroke which partly paralysed him, depriving him of the use of his left arm and left leg. 1938  8 February. Wrote to Clarendon Press: ‘On Saturday morning last I had a very slight stroke. I propose to make a rapid and satisfactory recovery, but granted that I do so I shall have to arrange matters rather differently in the future. My output of work will be very much smaller and I expect that it will be confined to what I consider to be the most immediately urgent philosophical problems. The remit should be a series of books more like Principles of Art than anything else I have written.’ He goes on to discuss who would continue his work on the Roman inscriptions. 1938  8 February. Ethel Collingwood wrote to H. Coote Lake at the Folklore Society apologising for RGC being unable to accept the invitation to speak on 16 February. 1938  February. Concerned about his ability to finish his work. While recovering he was visited by Nicolete Gray and said ‘he must finish all he had to write.’ 1938  17 February. Ethel Collingwood wrote to Kenneth Sisam at the Clarendon Press: ‘Robin wishes also to thank you for the proofs. He is correcting them as an

alternative amusement to reading novels. He wants me to suggest to you that no review copies of this book should be sent out. He says he has never had a review of any of his philosophical books that was not cretinous, & why should the Press spend money to obtain cretinous reviews? Of course if you think it is worthwhile to send them he doesn’t wish to stand in your way.’ 1938  March. Suffered another stroke depriving him of the power of speech. 1938  8 March. Wrote to the Clarendon Press, returning the proofs of The Principles of Art and commenting on his stroke: ‘As you know, I have lately had a stroke. These events cast shadows before them; and while I was working on the book last summer I was aware that unless I cut short the revision of my MS something would prevent my completing it. I therefore deliberately sent you an imperfectly revised MS in September. Events have showed that if I had not done so the book would never have been published at all: for even if I get back to writing in a year or two I should not at that time have the heart to revise a book that had grown cold.’ 1938  March. Purchased a small sailing yacht named Zenocrate. 1938  19 May. Wrote to R. W. Chapman at the Clarendon Press that ‘I have applied under doctors’ orders for a year’s sick leave as from the beginning of the current term. If and when I get back to work, I shall have to do very much less (by the same orders) than in the past. I propose to drop all archaeology and to become a rather idle philosopher. In these circumstances it seems to me right that the Delegates should have it in their power to replace me with someone more active, if they think it expedient.’ 1938  24 May to 31 August. First cruise of the Zenocrate 1938  1 June. In the English Channel in an 88 mph gale. The Times (3 June) reported that ‘Professor R.G. Collingwood, Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy, Oxford University, was alone in the 19ft sailing yacht Zenocrate, which was towed to a safe anchorage by the Deal motor-­boat Terrier, when she was driving ashore. He left the Thames a week ago on a four month cruise. When he ran into the gale, he said, he thought the yacht would founder at any moment.’ RGC privately disputed this account and claimed that he had been in no danger. 1938  28 July. On board Zenocrate moored at Buckler’s Hard, began writing An Autobiography. Its principal purpose was to ‘put on record some brief account of the work I have not yet been able to publish, in case I am not able to publish it in full’ (p.118). His fierce and candid text provoked much Oxford outrage and discussion. He was later asked by the Clarendon Press to temper the tone of the final chapter. RGC told Kenneth Sisam that ‘people certainly won’t take the book in the spirit in which it is written, and a lot of them will be very angry. I wrote it because I was told that I was dying, and thought it time a few home truths began sitting on my lips’ (22 March 1939).

1938  27 August. Moored on the Beaulieu river, buying paint and painting the decks; had a stroke in the afternoon. Next day he noted that the stroke was affecting his speech. He lay on his bunk below deck for three days scarcely able to move. 1938  7 October. Travelled to St Andrews to be presented with the degree of honorary LLD. He was presented for the degree by the Dean of the Faculty of Arts, Professor Blyth Webster. 1938  20 October. Wrote to A. D. Lindsay in support of his candidature as the anti-­appeasement candidate opposing Quintin Hogg, the Conservative candidate, in the Oxford by-­election. ‘I am appalled by the apathy with which our situation is regarded by a great many of us, and by the success which the Government has had in keeping the country as a whole from knowing the truth.’ This is the strident language of An Autobiography and shows clearly the depths of political disenchantment which had been brewing in his mind for several years. It is far removed from his comments on the election result in 1931. By the time of writing Man Goes Mad his mood had swung decisively: he was no longer the ‘cautious and sophistical Tory’ his colleague R. B. McCallum described. In the final pages of the Autobiography his voice has the tone of one who realises that he has been duped. He records no change in political beliefs, but rather a gradual awakening to the mendacity of the British government. 1938  Autumn. The Principles of Art published. 1938  22 October. Sailed from Birkenhead on M.V. Alcinous on a recuperative voyage to the Dutch East Indies. The only books he took with him, aside from books on the Dutch East Indies and primers on learning Malay, were the plays of Racine and Croce’s latest book, La storia come pensiero e come azione. 1938  24 October. While traversing the Bay of Biscay began writing An Essay on Metaphysics (at this point entitled Introduction to Metaphysics). 1939  10 February. Began writing The Principles of History, ‘which will go down to posterity as my masterpiece’. 1939  4 March. Began return journey on S.S. Rhesus. During the return voyage he rewrote the last chapter of An Autobiography and corrected the proofs, revised An Essay on Metaphysics and wrote ‘Notes for an essay on logic’. 1939  7 April. Returned from East Indies trip. 1939  Trinity Term. ‘Metaphysics’ lectures delivered. 1939  16 June. Wrote to Kenneth Sisam concerning C. N. Cochrane, Christianity and Classical Culture. He liked Cochrane because he understood that the problem of

understanding and explaining the collapse of civilisation can only be solved by putting together history, philosophy and theology. It is ‘the most important and remarkable book we have published since I have been a delegate . . .’ 1939  27 June. At Antibes boarded the schooner yacht Fleur de Lys for a trip around the Greek islands with a group of American Rhodes Scholars. They were inspired by his ability, in after dinner talks, to bring Greek history to life. The culmination of this enchantment occurred at Delphi where, at the end of the day, he gathered his students around him in the theatre and read, in the original, the first pages of a Greek play. As he read, ‘something happened to time’ and the theatre filled with ‘eager listeners, athletes, politicians, and the rest’ (R. Meyer, Clio’s Circle). 1939  17 August. At Naples, Collingwood leaves Fleur de Lys and makes his way home to England. He returned sporting a beard, a piece of evidence which fuelled the Oxford rumour that he had become a communist. What RGC thought of the nature of such historical ‘evidence’ is unrecorded. 1939  Edited and published a revised edition of H. H. Joachim, The Nature of Truth. 1939  September. An Autobiography published. Directly following Richard Crossman’s review, in The New Statesman and Nation (2 September 1939, p.345), ‘Minisculus’ wrote: Marxists cry ‘Nazi dope is all idealism’. Crossman and Collingwood say ‘Sure! – but realism,’ And all agree their worst foe lurks between, Who asks them what the devil then they mean.

1939  3 September. War declared on Germany. Wrote a valedictory letter to T. M. Knox. 1939  Michaelmas Term. ‘Nature and Mind’ lectures revised and a beginning made on rewriting them for publication. 1939  At the end of 1939 began writing essays and notes towards The New Leviathan. These included ‘What Civilization Means’ and ‘Barbarism’. 1939  An early Preface to The New Leviathan written (later superseded). ‘I shall begin by asking what man is. Next I shall ask what society is. Next I shall ask what civilization is. Then I shall consider the revolt against civilization; and lastly I shall ask how a society which considers itself civilized should behave in the face of this revolt. It is the last of these five questions that constitutes the real subject of the book; but it cannot be answered until the way has been prepared by answering the other four.’

1940  January. ‘Fascism and Nazism’ written immediately after reading Joad’s ‘Appeal to Philosophers’ in Philosophy. 1940  Hilary Term. ‘Moral Philosophy’ lectures, ‘Goodness, Rightness, Utility’ written and delivered. 1940  Hilary Term. ‘The Idea of Nature in Modern Science’ lectures delivered. 1940  9 February. Meeting of the Standing Committee for Intellectual Cooperation with China held in the Master’s Lodgings, Balliol. [Lindsay, Ross, Collingwood, Dodds, Price, Zimmern, E.R. Hughes] 1940  17 February. Wrote to Chadbourne Gilpatric: ‘I now see them [fascism and Nazism] as religious phenomena, outcrops of pre-Christian religion in revolt against Christianity and therefore against civilization, which (as we understand it) is a corollary of Christianity. When I wrote the Autobiography I was being a good deal impressed by Marxist ideas, but since then I have studied Marx and Marxism a bit more closely and now I can see just where they get off.’ He stated that he cannot leave England until the Inscriptions are finished, but that otherwise he would be happy to leave Oxford for the USA. He has tentative plans to go to America in 1945 when he assumed that the war would be over. 1940  7 March. An Essay on Metaphysics and the First Mate’s Log both published. ‘I have always wanted twins; my wife never managed to pull it off; it is a great pleasure that my publishers are now succeeding.’ 1940  8 March. ‘Historiography’ written. On page 2 of this notebook is written: ‘8-iii40. The Idea of History (Notes for lectures, on discovering that the Ms. which contains the results of my last 15 years’ work on the subject has disappeared)’. 1940  Trinity Term. ‘Idea of History’ lectures delivered. 1940  6 June. Wrote to his Doctoral student, Wolfgang von Leyden, expressing indignation at his internment and discussing the war: ‘The present war is not a war between nations, it is a war between men who want to stamp out thought and men who want to go on thinking.’ 1940  11 July. Co-­signatory with J. D. Beazley, Helen Darbishire, E. R. Dodds and W. D. Ross of a letter to the Times on the subject of the British government’s internment of aliens during wartime. 1940  20 July. Wrote to von Leyden: ‘I need not tell you how sorry and how much ashamed I am that you, with so many others, should have come to this country in order to escape from an intolerable tyranny and then find yourselves treated as if you were working for it rather than against it.’

Suffered another stroke, a slight one, which kept him in bed for a week. 1940  Writing The New Leviathan. ‘The New Leviathan was written in great part . . . during the bombardment of London’ (Preface). The bombardment of London was between September 1940 and May 1941. 1940  Michaelmas Term. ‘Philosophical Theory of Society and Politics’ lectures delivered. 1940  October. J. N. L. Myres replaced RGC on the Haverfield Bequest Committee. 1940  7 October. Wrote to F. G. Simpson that ‘I was away from home for a few days when your letter came, wishing to see for myself what the “greatest air force in the world” could do to London. The results are conclusive. Hitler can never beat us.’ This letter marks the dividing line between the pessimism of ‘Fascism and Nazism’ and the optimism of The New Leviathan. 1941  26 January. Suffered a severe stroke which rendered him both paralysed and speechless. 1941  1 March. Wrote letter of resignation from duties as a Delegate of the Clarendon Press. 1941  27 March. ‘I have resigned my professorship and am leaving Oxford for good as the result of a more drastic stroke of paralysis than hitherto. I must resign my editorship of the Roman Inscriptions of Britain. Chiefly by your kind offices there is already a man trained to take up the job: R.P. Wright of University College Durham. The Haverfield Trustees may wish to take notice of this change of personnel’ (letter to Hugh Last). 1941  April. Moved with Kathleen Edwardes to South Hayes, Streatley. 1941  April–June. Wrote two chapters of Part IV of The New Leviathan. 1941  14 April. Wrote to O. G. S. Crawford: ‘When the war broke out I saw that the whole business was due to the fact that everybody concerned was in a completely muddled condition about the first principles of politics and, examining my own mind, I saw that I had plenty of ideas which it would be a public service to state. The resulting treatise was about half finished when, in January 1941, I had another and far more serious stroke. I now can’t speak well enough for public speaking, I can’t write, except an illegible scrawl, and so forth.’ 1941  20 April. Officially vacated the Waynflete Professorship and his fellowship at Magdalen.

The Letters of R. G. Collingwood Introduction R. G. Collingwood (1889–1943), like Hume before him, disapproved of the publication of his private correspondence. In his Autobiography he says of replies to criticisms made in private letters that ‘in no circumstances should I authorise their publication’.1 He expressed a similar wish in his Will where he forbids the publication of any material ‘unless it bears witness of having been intended for more than merely temporary or ephemeral publication’. T. M. Knox reports that Collingwood ‘wrote remarkable letters to his friends, but he did not wish them to be published, and he directed that no attempt should be made to write his biography’.2 Collingwood relaxed this rule only in the case of the correspondence with Gilbert Ryle, which he considered to be of sufficient philosophical importance to merit public scrutiny.3 Furthermore, he discouraged discussion of his work, saying that ‘if there are any who think my work good, let them show their approval of it by attention to their own’.4 To pry into correspondence not intended for publication was an intrusion, irrelevant to understanding his thought, and a violation of his assumption that he was the best judge of which of his writings merited publication. Nevertheless, despite Collingwood’s wishes, it remains a fact that a significant number of letters have survived and are publicly available for inspection in university libraries, and elsewhere. A substantial number have been preserved in private hands. Additionally, since March 1978 the bulk of Collingwood’s unpublished papers have been available in the Bodleian Library, Oxford. Recently, this material has formed the basis for a number of important studies of his thought.5 This leaves the correspondence in an ambiguous position. On the one hand, it cannot be published if Collingwood’s wishes are to be respected, but, on the other, much of it is publicly accessible, and some letters, like the letters to Gilbert Ryle and to Benedetto Croce, have already been published in whole, or, like the letters to de Ruggiero, in substantial part.6 Many letters have become dispersed, and there is, therefore, a bibliographical value in providing an authoritative guide to the correspondence in order to make known to those interested in Collingwood’s thought the location of the letters that have come to light. This was the aim of Peter Johnson’s original work, The Correspondence of R. G. Collingwood, An Illustrated Guide, published by the R. G. Collingwood Society in 1998. Such an exercise respects Collingwood’s disapproval of the publication of private correspondence while at the same time providing a necessary supplement to existing bibliographies. The Guide was descriptive in the sense that it provided a short précis of those passages in

58

the letters which are relevant to the understanding of his philosophy and his archaeological work. Since 1998, however, further Collingwood letters have been discovered, many of which add greatly to our understanding of his life and thought. This section of the Research Companion lists all Collingwood letters known to date (with the exception of family and other letters referred to below). It follows the broad aims and classification of Johnson’s Guide and adds all new letters, together with quotations from the letters themselves. Collingwood’s correspondence is diverse in character, written in response to different circumstances, at different dates, from many different locations, and for different correspondents. Letters such as those to Birley, Crawford, Duff, Richmond, NashWilliams and Simpson, reveal Collingwood the working archaeologist, responding to queries about excavations, making suggestions for new lines of historical enquiry and reporting discoveries and recently sketched inscriptions. The letters to the publishers, Macmillan and the Clarendon Press, Oxford, are formal and business-­like, often containing much useful information about Collingwood’s proposals for publication, his intentions regarding their published form and his hopes for their reception. The letters to Alexander, Joseph, Prichard, Ryle and Smith are philosophically interesting in their own right and have the character of a private philosophical discussion. Some letters, those to Hughes and Leftwich, for example, are responses to queries, while that to Lindsay is an expression of political support. Letters to newspapers, like those to The Guardian and The Times, reveal Collingwood the public orator, writing (sometimes in company with other like-­minded individuals) to draw attention to proposals which he finds objectionable or policies the consequences of which have not been properly thought through. Finally, the letters to Coulton, Hopkinson and Knox most obviously reveal the irreducibly contingent nature of all letter-­writing. They contain passages of comment, criticism and encouragement, reports of work in progress, opinions about political life, statements of friendship and support, and all expressed in response to particular circumstances, and on the basis of the particular feelings of the time. When viewed as a whole, however, Collingwood’s correspondence derives its main historical value from the evidence it provides for the more accurate dating of the composition of individual published works. By comparison with the correspondence of Rousseau, Hume and John Stuart Mill, for example, the number of extant Collingwood letters which are publicly accessible is relatively small. It is true that a good many are of a purely formal nature, concerning the return of manuscripts to publishers, for example, or making arrangements for publication. Some are concerned with personal matters irrelevant to understanding his philosophy. Again, some letters duplicate ideas more expansively and satisfactorily expressed in the published works themselves. There are, however, others which do make a substantive contribution to our understanding of his thought. They provide evidence concerning his intentions and his state of mind and health which enables us to trace more sharply the development and consistency of his thought. These include the letters to Alexander, Lindsay, the Clarendon Press, Prichard, Wright, Hughes, Hopkinson, Gilpatric and Knox. With some of the letters to Macmillan the correspondence throws considerable light on many of the more intransigent problems of Collingwood interpretation, while the letters to Croce and de Ruggiero aid a better understanding of Collingwood’s debt to

Italian thought. In particular, Collingwood’s letters to Alexander help us to understand the development of his aesthetics, and also his debt to Croce. Letters to the Clarendon Press and Macmillan illuminate his willingness to translate de Ruggiero’s A History of European Liberalism, and his decision to re-­translate Ainslie’s original translation of Croce’s Aesthetic. The correspondence with Prichard provides lengthy evidence of Collingwood’s moral philosophy, the letters to Ryle, of his understanding of ontology, and the letters to Wright help us understand his reasons for transferring his work on Roman Inscriptions to Wright himself. Also, we have information regarding the nature and development of his political thought from the correspondence with Coulton, Hopkinson, Hughes, Lindsay, Macmillan, von Leyden, von Trott and Gilpatric. Evidence regarding the effect of his illness on his thought is provided, for example, by the letters to Alexander, the Clarendon Press, Croce, Hopkinson, Knox, Lindsay, von Leyden, and Wright. The whole question of the coherence of the later writings is affected by the letters to the Clarendon Press in which he clarifies his intentions regarding the series he planned in 1938. Such evidence as this does not automatically enforce a reinterpretation of Collingwood’s thought. It has to be evaluated together with the logic of the published works themselves. The original Guide listed over 360 letters from Collingwood. The section on Collingwood’s correspondence in the Research Companion contains these together with 70 additional letters, which include letters to the English novelist, Ann Bridge; the Cambridge historian, G. G. Coulton; the German ancient historian and archaeologist, E. Fabricius; the friend and sailing companion of Collingwood on his cruise to the Greek Islands, Chadbourne Gilpatric; the Oxford philosopher and contemporary of Collingwood, F. C. S. Schiller; and the distinguished anthropologist, Brenda Seligman. As they were in the original Guide, the letters are listed by correspondent, alphabetically, and chronologically for each correspondent. For each group of letters, i.e. those to one correspondent, the location and details of publication are given. Letters whose correspondents are unattributed and copies of letters which may not have been sent have not been included. The only replies to Collingwood’s philosophical letters which have been preserved are those from Prichard and Ryle, and details of these are also listed. The notes provide biographical information for each correspondent, and, when space permits, Collingwood’s references to them in his published works. For each letter the date is given and also a brief outline of its contents. Like the original Guide, the listing of Collingwood’s letters in this section is not exhaustive. It omits the many letters Collingwood wrote to his parents and others close to him which remain in private hands. It does, however, include the letters published in whole or in part in the recent edition of Collingwood’s An Autobiography, published as R. G. Collingwood: An Autobiography & Other Writings, edited by David Boucher and Teresa Smith, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2013 (hereafter AAOW). Other letters are certain to come to light. It is hoped that any supplementary listings will appear in future issues of Collingwood Studies.

Acknowledgements

In compiling the letters section we have accumulated a large number of debts both to individuals and to institutions. Mr Peter Nicholson of the University of York was a great help in the early stages of compiling Peter Johnson’s original work on Collingwood’s letters which was published under the auspices of the R. G. Collingwood Society as The Correspondence of R. G. Collingwood, An Illustrated Guide, Swansea, 1998; Professor David Boucher, joint-­editor of Collingwood Studies, has been unstinting in his support and encouragement throughout. Together they have saved us from many errors. In matters Collingwoodian we owe them both a great deal. Thanks are especially due to Mrs Lucy Roe for her sage advice about how to go about listing Collingwood’s correspondence in Johnson’s original Guide. With some small amendments this advice has been followed here. Peter Johnson’s colleagues in the Department of Philosophy, University of Southampton, helped greatly with the original guide through their tolerance, breadth of knowledge and, at times when it was needed, their sense of humour. Peter Johnson and James Connelly are grateful to the British Academy for the award of a travel grant in 1985 which enabled them to examine the T. M. Knox archive at the University of St Andrews. Our most important debts, however, are owed to the owners and custodians of the letters themselves. Teresa Smith, Collingwood’s daughter and Hon. President of the Collingwood Society, has through her contribution to Collingwood Studies been a model to follow. The late Dr Grace Simpson not only most kindly gave access to Collingwood’s letters to her father, F. G. Simpson, but also showed us copies in her possession of Collingwood’s letters to his own father, W. G. Collingwood. The following individuals also graciously allowed us to consult letters in their possession – the late Professor Eric Birley, Professor Anthony Birley, the late Professor H. T. Hopkinson, the late Rev R. Q. Nelson, Professor W. von Leyden and the late Professor R. P. Wright. Institutions and the librarians and archivists who work in them are also due considerable gratitude. We would like to thank Dr R. Taylor of the John Rylands Library, University of Manchester; the Hon. Secretary of the Armitt Library, Ambleside; Mr Nicholas Wilson formerly of the Clarendon Press; Dr D. S. Porter and, more latterly, Mr Colin Harris of the Bodleian Library, Oxford; the Librarian of Pembroke College, Oxford; Mrs Willmoore Kendall for access to the Kendall Papers; Mr Robert N. Smart of St Andrews University Library; Ms A. Broom of the Department of Antiquities, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford; Ilaria Perzia of the Ashmolean Museum; the Librarian of the British Museum; Mr David I. Mason of the Brotherton Library, University of Leeds; Mr Ian C. Frazer of Keele University Library; W. H. Bond, Librarian of the Houghton Library, Harvard University; the Librarian, Magdalen College, Oxford; the Librarian, National Library of Wales; the library staff at the Harry Ransom Research Center, the University of Texas at Austin; the Librarian of St John’s College, Cambridge; the library staff at the University of Leeds Library Special Collections and the library staff at

Liverpool University Library. Thanks are also due to Maggy Sasanow, Research Support Officer of the Centre for the Study of Ancient Documents, who helped us to locate a number of letters about Roman inscriptions sent to him from various correspondents, some of whom are listed in this section. To all the above we are grateful for providing us with copies of letters in their possession and for giving us permission to quote short extracts from them. Our thanks are also due to the following who provided useful answers to queries: Lord Morris of Grasmere, Lady Drusilla Scott, Lord Duncan-Sandys; Professors Robert D. Cumming, George Clark, T. M. Knox, Alan Donagan, Dorothy Emmet, William Kneale, J. N. L. Myres, G. N. G. Orsini, H. H. Price, G. Ryle and E. W. F. Tomlin; Miss Mary Bailey, A. S. Bell, Assistant Keeper of Manuscripts, National Library of Scotland, G. L. Harris, Librarian Magdalen College Oxford, Mrs J. K. Cordy, then Assistant Librarian, Pembroke College Oxford, Mrs J. Woods, Archivist, the Labour Party Library, and Mr Chadbourne Gilpatric. We would also like to thank Professor J. G. Slater and Mr Rik Peters for providing us with copies of Collingwood material in their possession. The contributors to Collingwood Studies have also given us information, encouragement and stimulation. Most guides of correspondence take the form of interim reports; our instincts tell us that further Collingwood correspondence will come to light. This list, therefore, should be taken as a start for others to follow.

The Correspondence of R. G. Collingwood In addition to the items detailed in the main listing, there are a large number of letters from Collingwood to family and friends in the possession of his daughter Teresa Smith at the Teresa Smith Archive (TSA). For these items we have listed the range of dates and the TSA reference numbers. In due course these letters will be donated to the Bodleian Library, at which point fuller details of content will become possible. We would like to thank Teresa Smith for permission to refer to this material in the Companion. To members of family and friends 104 letters with unidentified recipients.

Collingwood distinguishes his own view from Alexander’s, and from Croce’s whose thought is mentioned. There are references also to Bradley, Bosanquet, and Abercrombie as aestheticians. Collingwood concludes that Alexander’s paper [‘Art and the Material’, Alexander’s Adamson Lecture, 1925, see Samuel Alexander, Philosophical

Even Croce talks like a literary critic, not like an artist; so does Abercrombie; so do the whole pack of them. Bosanquet knew nothing about art; Bradley something, but he wouldn’t say it.

1977 Birley explains how this invitation came about. He writes, ‘My Philosophy tutor in Brasenose, Jenkinson, didn’t take long, in my first Greats term, to appreciate that philosophy was not for me; so, after I had read an essay to him, and he commented on it, there were twenty minutes or so to fill in, out of the hour; so he asked me what I was proposing to do in the Long Vacation. I told him that I had heard that Wheeler was about to excavate the Caerleon amphitheatre, and that he was prepared to take undergraduates into his work-­force. “Oh,” said Jenkinson, “you are interested in Roman Britain, then? I will put you in touch with Collingwood” (who, as you know, was university lecturer in Philosophy and Roman Britain); this letter was the upshot, and in the event I took part in my first excavation, under him, at Bainbridge in Wensleydale. At the close of the excavation, he took me to a country meeting of the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society (whose Transactions he edited), and after that suggested that I should have a look at Hadrian’s Wall, before returning home to Manchester. In 1927 he sent me to excavate on the Wall with F. G. Simpson, and that led, indirectly, to my appointment as lecturer in Roman British History and Archaeology in the two divisions of the federal university of Durham – to which the next letter refers.’ Publication: unpublished (1) Birley, E., 1906–95. Professor of Romano-British History and Archaeology at Durham University 1956–71, leading Romano-British archaeologist, studied under Collingwood at Oxford; main publications, Research on Hadrian’s Wall, Kendal, 1961; Roman Britain and the Roman Army, London, 1953; for further biographical information see the Obituary in The Times, 15 November 1995.

People who lose that quality suddenly find their historical and archaeological work dry and loathsome and become discontented, unhappy and half-­hearted in their job. I have always escaped that fate by doing other things primarily, and keeping my archaeology as an amateur’s hobby, but then of course mine is amateurish, and yours aims at a higher standard. But there is no reason why you should not reach that standard while still keeping much of your mind free for other interests and occupations.’ Publication: part published V444; Taylor 1.189; Dreisbach 5.4.

C., 1871–1935. Archaeologist, Director of the British School at Athens, 1900–5, Professor of Classical Archaeology at the University of Liverpool, 1906–20; excavated in Roman sites in Wales; Collingwood’s opinion of Bosanquet is to be found in Robert Carr Bosanquet, Letters and Light Verse, edited by Ellen S. Bosanquet, John Bellows Ltd., Gloucester, 1930, p.9 – ‘In discussing high and serious matters of archaeology with him one never knew when his face, evidently quite against his will, would begin to be suffused with an expression like the summer dawn and he would come out with a comment on some exquisitely funny aspect of the subject. At the same time, like other men with a well-­developed and well-­exercised sense of humour, he had a perfectly serious mind, inflexibly business like, entirely unselfish, and tireless in taking trouble for the good of others and for the advancement of knowledge’.

He encloses a Memorandum in which he describes the facts of the situation as he understands them. [It seems that the translation project was abandoned since as Ann Bridge writes later, ‘At that stage I had the idea of translating Daniel Vare’s Chinese short stories into English – I wrote to him, sending a sample, and received permission. Armed with this I asked Harold Raymond, of Chatto & Windus, whether he would care to publish these if I did enough to fill a book? The Raymonds were neighbours and friends, and I occasionally read French and Italian novels for Harold, to report on whether they were worth translating. Harold’s reply was memorable – “I’d much rather you wrote us a novel about China yourself ” ’, Ann Bridge, Facts and Fictions, Chatto and Windus, London, 1968, p.36, also p.20. The result was Peking Picnic, 1932. It may be that in giving his advice Collingwood was remembering the problems he encountered when he translated Croce’s Aesthetic, a work originally translated by Douglas Ainslie, see his letters to Macmillan, Mac9 and following.] Publication: unpublished (1) Bridge, Ann [pseudonym of Mary Dolling Sanders O’Malley 1889–1974, known to Collingwood as Mary Anne], mountaineer, novelist and biographer.

include Peking Picnic, 1932, The Ginger Griffin, 1934, and Illyrian Spring, 1935. Her novel, And Then You Came, Chatto and Windus, London, 1948 is set in the country around Skipness and includes an archaeological dig. Ann Bridge was married to the diplomat, Owen O’Malley, a cousin of Angus Graham whose sister, Ethel Graham, married Collingwood on 22 June 1918 [see Angus Graham, Skipness Memories of a Highland Estate, Cannongate Academic, Edinburgh, 1993, pp.33 and 111]. It seems that Ann Bridge met Ethel before Collingwood since, writing of her time working for the Charity Organization Society in London before the First World War, she says, ‘At the C. O. S. I encountered Ethel Graham of Skipness, who was studying sociology,’ [at Somerville College, Oxford], ‘and she invited me to spend the Easter of 1913 at her home in Argyll. There I met my husband; by June we were engaged; and in October of that year we got married and settled down in London.’ Ann Bridge, Portrait of My Mother, Chatto and Windus, London, 1955, p.230.

Hutchinson, London, 1963 – ‘In addition to his work as a freelance writer Squire became involved at this period in a publishing enterprise. A friend named Howard Hannay had received some money from his father, and with this he and Squire founded the Howard Latimer Publishing Company’ [p.77]; Howard Latimer Ltd was founded in 1912 and failed in 1916 when it was sold to George Allen and Unwin.] Collingwood’s next book was Religion and Philosophy which he published with Macmillan in 1916; in 1921, with Howard Hannay, he translated G. De Ruggiero, Modern Philosophy for George Allen and Unwin. His first book for Oxford University Press was Roman Britain in 1923. While the letters here listed give a fair reflection of Collingwood‘s relations with the Clarendon Press both as a Delegate and an author they should not be regarded as comprehensive. Many letters were destroyed, some have been lost and others may yet come to light.

had written to Collingwood asking him for comments and corrections to be made on an interleaved copy of his book. Vernon Blake, 1875–1930, was an artist whose work Collingwood respected. He visited Blake in the South of France and makes an admiring reference to him in The Principles of Art [p.145]; Blake in his book, Thought: A State Asset, published by the Author at 56 Tedworth Square, London SW3, 1930 writes, ‘Mr R. G.

This book is, and will very likely remain, his masterpiece; I regard it as an exceedingly fine piece of work and one of genuinely international importance.’ The book was published by the Press in Collingwood’s own translation in 1927.

He was dead long before Bosanquet wrote on politics, and his relation to Hegel is hardly one of affiliation.

I don’t think anyone has tried, previously, to write a history of the change by which the pagan society of the time of Augustus turned into the Christian society of the time of Augustine, treating that change both as a change in the outward structure of society and as a corresponding change in the philosophical ideas which underlie (as an idealist would say) or reflect (as a Marxist would say) that structure.

I propose to make a rapid and satisfactory recovery, but granted that I do so I shall have to arrange matters rather differently in the future. My output of work will be very much smaller and I expect that it will be confined to what I consider to be the most immediately urgent philosophical problems. The result should be a series of books more like “Principles of Art” than anything else I have written.

Collingwood talks about his own feelings about his work at this stage of his life and of the series of strokes which came close to completely incapacitating him. He writes, ‘You speak with a warmth that I find almost painful about continuing my work. You mean, I suppose, work about history and its theory. Well and good; but was it a man’s work? I feel like the man in Vauvenargues who explained that he was quite willing to improve himself; but it took a long time “et je meurs”. “That man”, as they say, has turned his attention to politics; the question is, not whether the intended politics or the hypothetical history is the better, but what the emergency calls for.’ Publication: unpublished (1) Coulton, G. G., 1858–1947. British medieval historian. Fellow of St. John’s College, Cambridge 1919.

DUFF, HAROLD Duf1  To: Duff, Harold (1) Date: 8 January 1921 Location: Sackler Library, Oxford Reference:— Subject matter: Collingwood refers to a find of potsherds made at Mawbray, Maryport which he describes as ‘a curious and valuable collection’. He says that the find raises a number of important archaeological questions and he is encouraged to hear that further excavations are in progress. Publication: unpublished (1) Harold Duff was an archaeologist and local historian who lived in Aspatria, a village near Carlisle in Cumbria. He joined the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society in 1921, taking an active part in excavations and remaining an enthusiastic member for many years. He was the author of  ‘Remains near Mawbray’ (CW 38: 157–59) and a number of other contributions to archaeological journals. Collingwood acknowleges his help in a number of articles, for example, R. G. Collingwood, ‘The Roman Fort at Beckfoot’ (CW 36: 76–84). In 1921 and again in 1922 and 1925, Duff donated pottery found at the Roman fort at Beckfoot, Mawbray to the Tullie House Museum, Carlisle. Duf2  To: Duff, Harold Date: 9 September 1922 Location: Sackler Library, Oxford Reference:— Subject matter: Collingwood comments on the latest collection of finds from the Mawbray site.

127

Reference: Samling Ekwall, Eilert Subject matter: discussion of a Roman milestone and its relevance to the RomanoCeltic name of Lancaster. Publication: unpublished (1) Ekwall, Eilert, 1877–1964. Philologist, Professor of English at Lund University, Sweden 1909–42, author of many books on English place names, including The Concise Oxford Dictionary of English Place Names, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1936; for a bibliography, see Olaf von Feilitzen, The Published Writings of Eilert Ekwall: A Bibliography, C. W. K. Gleerup, Lund, 1961. Ekwall was a collaborator with, and close friend of, R. G. Collingwood’s father, W. G. Collingwood; for further information, see Matthew Townend, The Vikings and Victorian Lakeland: The Norse Medievalism of W. G. Collingwood and His Contemporaries, Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society, Extra Series Vol. XXXIV, Titus Wilson and Son, Kendal, 2009, pp.260–1, 263 and 267. R. G. Collingwood refers to Ekwall’s researches in his Archaeology of Roman Britain, Methuen, London, 1930, p.66 and also in Roman Britain and the English Settlements (with J. L. Myres), Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1936, p.19. ELIOT, T. S. Eli1  To: T. S. Eliot (1) Date: 8 May 1927 Location: Faber and Faber Archive Reference: The Monthly Criterion Subject matter: Collingwood writes concerning his review of two books on Greek philosophy, A. E. Taylor, Plato, The Man and His Work and Jean Wahl Étude sur le Parménide de Plato (this was published in The Monthly Criterion, 6 (July 1927), pp.65–8). He writes, ‘I decided to devote the review to the central problem – the question of the relation of Plato to Socrates – and let everything else slide.’ Publication: The Letters of T. S. Eliot, edited by Valerie Eliot and John Haffendon, Volume 3, 1926–7, Faber and Faber, London, 2012, p.505. (1) Collingwood’s publications in The Monthly Criterion, and his admiration for T. S. Eliot’s poetry, are well known. Less well known is the fact that it was Herbert Read who suggested to Eliot that Collingwood review for The Monthly Criterion, see The Letters of T. S. Eliot, op. cit., p.393. It is also worth mentioning that from the same volume (p.880), we learn that on 8 March 1938 Collingwood sent Eliot a copy of his recently published The Principles of Art (1938), in which Eliot’s masterpiece, The Waste Land, is welcomed by Collingwood as a major influence, (see pp.295, 333f.), writing ‘in a sense the book is dedicated to you; the concluding pages are all about The Waste Land, regarded as a demonstration of what poetry has got to be if my aesthetic theory is to be true!’ (see Letters of T. S. Eliot, op. cit., p.880). The importance of Eliot’s poem for understanding Collingwood’s account of a civilization in decline has not gone unnoticed, see, for example, Philip Smallwood, ‘The Re-Enactment of the Self: Perspectives from Literature, Criticism, and Culture’, in R. G. Collingwood, The Philosophy of Enchantment, op. cit., p.xxvii.

shops: shops are half-­empty, prices are lower than ever, and nobody has money to buy. But the spirit of the country seems to be very good. We have paid our debt to America and have made them promise to reconsider the whole question; this gives us at once a feeling of national self-­respect and a hope, faint but real, that the end of this terrible drain of payments almost equally harmful to the givers and to the receivers may soon come to an end. Our taxes, higher than they have ever been, were to have been reduced but still remain as high as ever: they are strangling our trade and manufacture, but we all feel certain that these will revive the instant our payments to America cease, so the hope of that keeps us cheerful, and in the mean time our political situation is stable, and will remain stable until our economic situation becomes either much better or much worse. So I do not feel very gloomy about our future here: and I always love and admire my countrymen in their deepest misfortunes which show all their best virtues.’ Publication: unpublished THE FOLKLORE SOCIETY Fol1  To: Harold Coote Lake, Secretary, the Folklore Society (1) Date: late September/early October 1936 Location: Folklore Society Archives Reference: ‘Minutes of Evening and General Meetings 1936–59.’ Subject matter: Collingwood’s request to become a member of the Society.

FORESTRY COMMISSION For1  To: The Forestry Commission Date: October 1935 Location: Reference:— Subject matter: This was a petition of the Friends of the Lake District asking it to reconsider its decision to proceed with the afforestation of Eskdale and Dunnerdale. The published pamphlet contained many names listed by profession. Collingwood’s name is included under ‘academic’. Publication: Pamphlet, The Petition of the Friends of the Lake District to the Forestry Commissioners, October 1935. FOX, CYRIL Fox1  To: Fox, Cyril (1) Date: 14 January 1935 Location: private possession Reference:— Subject matter: Collingwood links the survey of Wat’s Dyke (which Fox conducted between 1925 and 1931) with Fox’s theories of highland and lowland cultures. Collingwood ponders the ‘question whether the curious blend of poetry and practicality that makes up the historical character of the English people from the middle ages may not be a cross between the poetic, idealistic and somewhat slow minded Celt, who couldn’t in the least assimilate the lessons in efficiency that Rome tried to teach him, and the dry, tough and persevering Low German temperament of these dyke building pioneers. For me, and I judge from your Personality of Britain for you too, it is this modern England that is the problem we archaeologists are trying to explain. This new paper of yours adds another quite important chunk of evidence towards the way in which the problem is more and more coming to present itself, to my mind, as the question of how exactly Celt and Germanic strains contributed to the final result.’ Publication: cited and discussed in Charles Scott-Fox, Cyril Fox, Archaeologist Extraordinary, with a Preface by Christopher Chippendale, Oxbow Books, Oxford, 2002, p.137. (1) Fox, Sir Cyril, 1882–1967, Keeper of Archaeology of the National Museum of Wales 1926–48, and archaeologist of Roman Britain whose work Collingwood admired.

G GARRETT, F. C. Gar1  To: Garrett, F. C. Colonel (1) Date: 31 October 1924 Location: Bodleian Library, Oxford Reference: MS. Eng. C. 7284 fol. 25 Subject matter: Collingwood responds to a query from Garrett regarding the Roman sentry system and how it may have been adapted to the Roman Wall. Publication: unpublished, but listed in ‘Further Letters of R. G. Collingwood’, Collingwood and British Idealism Studies, Vol. 11, No. 1, Spring, 2005, pp.111–12. (1) Lt. Colonel Frederick Charles Garrett served with 3rd Volunteer Battalion, Northumberland Fusiliers (2nd/Lt 31/4/1900; Captain, date not known), leaving the Volunteer Force after the Boer War. He was promoted to Major on 9/9/1914 and to Lt-Colonel, 30/10/1914, serving with the 1/2nd Northumberland Cyclist’s Battalion. He received the Silver War Badge and OBE, leaving the Army in late 1917/early 1918. Up to 1935 he lived at West Croft, Elvaston Road, Hexham. [We are greatly indebted to Major T. L. Craze, Royal Signals, retired, of the Royal Green Jackets Museum, Winchester for providing this information.] From 1923 Garrett was a member of the Newcastle upon Tyne Society of Antiquaries, and in 1921 he was one of the assistants to the editor of The Vasculum, The North Country Quarterly of Science and Local History. It may have been this connection that prompted Garrett to write to Collingwood with his query since Collingwood’s important revisionary article on Hadrian’s Wall, in which the sentry system is mentioned, appeared in The Vasculum, 8, 1921, pp.4–9. Collingwood refers further to the question in his Roman Britain, Oxford University Press, London, 1923, p.30. For a general discussion of the importance of Collingwood’s writings on the problem of the Wall, see W. J. Van der Dussen, History as a Science, The Philosophy of R. G. Collingwood, M. Nijhoff, The Hague, 1981, pp.225–41. Collingwood had later personal experience of the peacetime perils of cycling, see his letter to the Clarendon Press 28 February 1934, and Willmoore Kendal’s confirmation of this incident in Oxford Years: The Letters of Willmoore Kendal to His Father, edited by Yvona Kendall Mason, Intercollegiate Studies Institute, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, 1993, p.334 [letter dated 5 March 1934].

It gives exactly the feeling of that sun falling on the grey stone and the brown landscape, and hitting them both like a hammer. I have never been to Tingad, but I know much the same thing in Spain. I shall prize the drawing both for what it is in itself and also as a symbol of one of the nicest things that ever happened to me.’ Publication: unpublished HOPKINSON, H. T.

Collingwood writes, ‘You see, theoretically, a piece of writing is a piece of writing, & its subject-­matter makes no difference to its merits: but the public doesn’t look at things that way, and just as the reviewers were shocked by Jude the Obscure because Jude wasn’t married to Sue, so the publishers (if I can guess their feelings) are shocked by your book because it says that people live not on the merits of their goods but on the success of their advertising.’ Publication: unpublished (1) Hopkinson, H.

responsibility; criticism of appeasement; correction of The Times report of 3 June 1938 of his experience in coming through the Channel gale [see Hop2]. Collingwood writes, ‘My Zenocrate (the divine Zenocrate) is a 4 tonner, Thames, 1.98 registered, designed by Harrison Butler and a great boat. The newspaper story [see The Times, 3 June 1938] of her battle of the First of June was a pack of lies. The facts were that I ran her into that gale (which recorded 88 M.P.H. at Calshot) while beating for Dover, after drifting in the morning round the North Foreland; I didn’t see what it was going to be like, and continued to beat for Dover; after two hours of rising gale it was rather rough out there, off the South Foreland and half-­way over to France, and I decided to run for the Downs. Acting under Guidance: because next day Dover harbour was a shambles they tell me. Yachts drifted from end to end of it, and then got what was coming to them against the E. Pier! Z. behaved divinely, took like a duck and never shipped a drop, only a very little spray. At dark I took the mainsail off her without cutting my halyard, and ran before it under jib until, at midnight, I had the lights of Deal abeam; and there I anchored. At dawn I was abreast of the Deal lifeboat station; tide ebbing, lifeboat crew standing to and waiting for a distress signal from me. I was quite happy, anchor holding nicely, gale blowing ditto. Motorboat with longshore men came out and told me I was anchored too close in, and that the sea would break where I was anchored by 8 A.M. So I let them tow me to what they considered a safe anchorage, the other side of Deal pier, and put me ashore (I had lost my dinghy of course) to go to bed in a pub.’ See Inglis, op. cit., p.238 for further discussion.

indicates his determination to complete The New Leviathan, admiration for Hobbes, personal matters. Collingwood writes, ‘I have, since getting settled down here in the country, turned my attention to continuing and if possible finishing a book about politics – The New Leviathan I call it because nobody since Hobbes has had a perfectly hard-­boiled attitude to politics, and by recovering that Hobbesian attitude one can make sense even of the politics that is going about in the world now.

Bradley’s The Presuppositions of Critical History (1874) which Joseph had loaned to Collingwood; Collingwood writes, ‘I realise why Bradley never republished it: his conception of analogy as here assumed (rather than expounded) is of course, like much of the logical framework, uncritically borrowed from Mill and must have become intolerable to Bradley after he arrived at the position of his Logic. But all the same it is a very great work, as great in its way as anything he ever wrote; and it not only explains (as it seems to me) much that is obscure about the origin and the meaning of his logical doctrines (e.g. the notion of

ideal construction appears in a very different light after one has read Note A) but must stand as the most penetrating and brilliant analysis in existence of that special kind or phase of historical thought which he calls critical history . . . The whole problem is nowadays as out of date as the problem of the Leviathan; but when he wrote, nothing could have been more to the point than what he wrote. And I think one might say that his own Logic, by destroying the logical basis of the dilemma on which “critical history” was impaling itself was at any rate a great part of what made possible the new phase of history which is going on nowadays. In any case it is very interesting to see how the destruction of Mill’s system came about, not by a fresh analysis of scientific thinking, but by reflexion on historical thinking and its relation to scientific. I don’t know if this is generally known, as a point in the genesis of “Oxford Idealism” – no one has ever said it to me or written it in anything I have read.’ Publication: unpublished (1) Joseph, H.

It is my belief that Philosophy (I will go further and say Metaphysics) as the science of the One, or the Good, or the Real, is both possible and necessary, and that it cannot be resolved into the history of itself except by a vicious circle: though at the same time it cannot be studied without studying the history of itself, to determine which of its problems mainly concern us here, and now, which have been tolerably well settled, and which are as yet unripe for discussion.’ Publication: unpublished, but summarised by Taylor, p.95.

Nazi ideas have the explosive force of novelty: what we call ‘democratic’ ideas are old and stale, and – silent inter arma leges – likely to become absolutely decrepit in war conditions, whose effect might easily be the intellectual bankruptcy of our own side, even (perhaps I should say especially) in the event of military victory. People like you and me have a clear duty to prevent this if it can be prevented; and to diminish the evil effects if it can’t. Accordingly, as my audiences shrink [Collingwood was lecturing on moral philosophy while H. J. Paton was away from Oxford on war service]. I mean to spend more and more of my time on a new book which I began a few weeks ago, in which the idea of a ‘free’ or ‘civilized’ society shall be expounded ab initio and developed dialectically by counter-­ attacking the Nazi attack on it. Greatly daring (for I doubt my power to bend the bow of Ulysses) I shall call it The New Leviathan.’ Collingwood refers to the First Mate’s Log; discussion of the philosophers J. A. Smith and E. F. Carritt and the reception of Hegel; encouragement to Knox to press ahead with his translation of Hegel’s Philosophy of Right. Publication: summarised in Taylor, p.94. Extract published in R. G.

Collingwood writes, ‘I do not think that the country has ever in all its history passed through a graver crisis than that in which it is now involved. I am appalled by the apathy with which our situation is regarded by a great many of us, and by the success which the Government has had in keeping the country as a whole from knowing the truth.

We all know what kind of world it is to which you refer as the reality (or objective reality) world. But what is exactly its title to the name reality? I am haunted by a suspicion that it has none except the fact that adult members of modern European society (or rather, the “educated classes” of that society) are agreed to treat it as real: that (in other words) it is the conventional world of a particular historically determined culture. It is not the world of adult human beings as such: not, e.g., of modern Indians or (educated) medieval Europeans. This doubt in my mind leads me to wonder whether such words as phantasy (p.30, middle) aren’t quite non-­ scientific terms, indicating merely our wish to ignore these (perfectly real) features of experience which we can’t fit into our conventional scheme.’ Publication: published in Cathy Urwin and John Hood-Williams, Child Psychotherapy, War and the Normal Child, Selected Papers of Margaret Lowenfeld, Free Association Books, London, 1988, pp.242–3.

M MACDONALD, JAMES RAMSAY, PRIME MINISTER 1929–31 Macd1  To: The Prime Minister Date: 23 April 1930 Location: whereabouts of original unknown Reference: Cumberland Evening News 24 April 1930. Subject matter: Collingwood (together with the Chairman of the meeting held at the Crown and Mitre Hotel, Carlyle on Wednesday, 23 April 1930, H. S. Cowper) is writing on behalf of the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society on the subject of quarrying as a threat to the integrity of Hadrian’s Wall. The letter says that the Society ‘view with the gravest concern the proposal to start extensive quarrying operations in the immediate neighbourhood of its best preserved and most interesting part. Even if, as their promoters assure us, these operations stop short of the wall itself, they cannot fail to destroy parts of the Vallum and the Military Way, which are integral elements in the great Roman frontier works. Moreover, highly though we value the assurance that the Wall itself will be spared, we cannot think it desirable that so important a monument should depend for its existence on the personal and not unalterable wishes of the persons who possess or lease the mineral rights of the land on which it stands. The society therefore would urge the Government to stay, by any action possible, any developments so detrimental to this unique site which depends for its educational and historical value not on the Wall alone, but on the whole complex of works in their topographical setting.’ The letter was also sent to the Leader of the Opposition and to the Press.

Reference:— Subject matter: concerns Collingwood’s responses to a number of queries raised by an undergraduate: agrees that she can attend his lectures and responds to a series of points arising out of her reading Principles of Art which are to do with responses to music and visual art, art and communication, art as magic, intellectual expression, and the emotions. At one point Collingwood says ‘ “Homage” a very good word. “We live by admiration, hope, & love,” says Wordsworth: right as usual. Homage is a degree of worship: the business of art is “what therefore ye ignorantly worship, that I declare unto you”. To learn exactly what it is you feel.’ ‘Your final question is rather a large one. “What ought we to do with our emotions?” is very like “What ought we to do with our bodies?” The answer is “everything (or very nearly everything) we do at all”. They aren’t a problem, they are an infinite variety of possibilities. I very nearly accept Aristotle’s view that they are the raw material of all moral life i.e. of all life whatever.’ Publication: unpublished (1) It has not been possible to trace this correspondent.

I wrote the categories on slips and put them in sealed black envelopes, which were distributed to the diners’; reference to Principles of Art due out soon. Publication: unpublished (1) Miles, B., 1907–91. Bernard Miles [later Lord Miles] was an actor and director.

Mun2  To: Munro, Isobel Date: 29 February 1932 Location: TSA Reference: (TS/PLR123) Subject matter: Collingwood advises Munro about her problems at Somerville and he talks about his own experience, saying – ‘Take my case; I’m not serious about Pembroke, and never have been. I know they dislike it, they want people to appear on the touchline and at college dinners in London, and I never do. But I try to give them something else instead. I try to make the name Pembroke College familiar to scholars and philosophers all over the world, and so instead of saying “I didn’t know there was a Pembroke College at Oxford” people say “Pembroke College? Oh yes, that’s where Collingwood is.” (This sounds dreadfully conceited, but I must make a clean breast of it)! Well, it does work, and the College does set a certain value on it; they would rather, of course, I spent my time giving breakfast parties to undergraduates, but they are quite willing to take this as a second best. All it needs, on my part, is that I should see its point of view and go to work in a fair spirit of give and take; dine in College a reasonable number of nights in the week, and that sort of thing.’ Collingwood concludes by saying that this has been his attitude for the last twenty years.

Fols 88–94 Subject matter: reply to a query from Nelson regarding possible overlap in their work. Nelson had been influenced by Collingwood’s thought and was anxious to ensure that his proposed study of neural disorder did not conflict with Collingwood’s plans. Collingwood writes that he thinks this is unlikely except in the most general way. Collingwood writes, ‘If you are working on dementia praecox, paranoia and manic depressive insanity, I do not think there is any danger of serious overlap. I do not expect to be able in the books I hope to write, to throw any light on these disorders, except that in quite a general way, my studies might help to explain, partially and not completely, why they should be common to certain types of environment: I mean in the same way in which a study of housing, sanitation, etc., might partially explain the incidence of diseases whose aetiology was unknown and not explained by this partial explanation of their incidence.’ Publication: unpublished; Taylor, 1.182; Dreisbach, 5.20; Burchnall, 1.b2. (1) Nelson, Rev. R. Q., 1903–80. Nelson was the author of a number of works on mental disorder, mostly privately printed; he reprinted Collingwood’s Ruskin’s Philosophy (1922), Quentin Nelson, Chichester, 1971. Nel2  To: Nelson, R. Q. Date: 20 February 1940 Location: as above Reference: as above Subject matter: Collingwood’s advice to Nelson regarding his book on mental illness; Collingwood writes, ‘Better to say a few selected important things, giving yourself space to say them properly, than to say a lot of things merely because you have them in your head.’ Collingwood then addresses the question of the readers Nelson is writing for – ‘For what readers? For the “general” reader. For the educated or partly educated man or woman who have heard a little about the subject and want to know more. These are the people you want to reach, not psychotherapists or other specialists. Psychotherapists are mostly very dogmatic sectarian folk who don’t want to hear anything new, and won’t give anything a hearing which comes from outside their own sect.’ Publication: unpublished, but short summary in Taylor 1.182; as above.

Reference: as above Subject matter: Collingwood’s detailed comments on the draft of Nelson’s book; Collingwood is enthusiastic about its autobiographical style and makes some positive comments about what he calls ‘fictitious autobiography’ giving David Copperfield and Lavengro as examples. Collingwood writes, ‘I think there are the makings of a good book here. What I like about your idea is that you stand perfectly free from the bogus objectivity of what nowadays is falsely called science – the sort of “here are the facts dispassionately stated – take them or leave them – it doesn’t matter to me” point of view. You start with the proposition “this is what I have been through: I am only talking about my own experience.” That’s good. You write as an articulate representative of the not-­understood, the not-­loved.’ Publication: unpublished, but summarised in Taylor 1.182; as above. Nel4  To: Nelson, R. Q.

You can hardly realise how much both meant to an invalid exile. It was owing to them that I arrived in Sicily quite a different creature, and have since then been very well and strong, & look forward without the least misgiving to the greater exertions involved in Greece.’ Publication: unpublished (1) Richmond, I.

(1) Date: 24 February 1929 Location: Houghton Library, University of Harvard Reference: MS. Eng. 1148 (303) Subject matter: content of a lecture Collingwood is to give later that day when Rothenstein is to be chairman; discusses aesthetics, saying that ‘My idea was to discuss the well-­worn theme of the distinction or opposition between classical and romantic art: the classical artist as the man who is interested in making a perfect work, formally perfect, and the romantic artist as the man who is inspired or excited by a subject and prefers saying something important to saying something as well as it can be said. The “form” is the classical perfection of art, the “content” the emotional appeal of its subject. I propose to argue that it is a mistake to divide artists up in this way, because (I think)

Young Research Library, UCLA. Reference:— Subject matter: Collingwood thanks Schiller for sending the manuscript of his review of Collingwood’s An Essay on Philosophical Method published in 1933. Collingwood clarifies one of his arguments in that book to meet a criticism of Schiller’s by saying that, ‘I had spent a page (pp.9–10) on warning the reader that I did not for a moment mean to assert what you call my “essential contention”; that my 3 methods were, as it were, a Scylla, a Charybdis, and a via recta for philosophy, not three viae rectae for three Wissenschaften: I was writing an essay on philosophical method not a treatise on the ways of knowing. And on p.151 I actually repeated that warning to prevent anyone from reading into the chapter the meaning you have read into it.’ Publication: unpublished, but for discussion of Schiller’s review [Mind, 43, 1934, pp.117–20], see R.

SELIGMAN, BRENDA Sel1  To: Seligman, Brenda (1) Date: 17 October 1936 Location: LSE Archives, Seligman 2/5 Reference:— Subject matter: Collingwood says that he has been ‘working at fairy-­tales lately in the hope of becoming able to “excavate” them like an archaeological site, strip off the modern layers, and get down to relics of very early customs and beliefs’. He asks Seligman ‘Is my conception of a society in which there is totemistic exogamy, but no father-­daughter taboo, an ethnological absurdity? If so, there is something wrong with my method of interpreting fairy-­tales.’ Publication: unpublished, but mentioned and discussed, in James Connelly, ‘R. G.

Collingwood’s interest in anthropological discussions of social and sexual prohibitions arose as a part of his investigation into the roots of civilisation, one he saw as intimately connected with his folktales researches and which came to occupy him increasingly during the late summer and autumn of 1936. His question to Seligman concerning the universal character of the incest barrier should be read in this light. [See the very useful discussion in Wendy James, ‘A Fieldworker’s Philosopher: Perspectives from Anthropology’, in R. G.

G. Date: 6 October 1922 Location: as above Reference: as above Subject matter: philosophy of history; practical value of history; historical knowledge and human happiness. Collingwood writes, ‘Spinoza said that to be happy, to love God intelligently, meant to see everything sub specie aeternitatis – stripping off the passions and the distorting interests of the moment and acquiring the “point of view of eternity”. Now the truth seems to me that only the historian sees things from the point of view of eternity: because the evolutionary biologist, the astronomer, the mathematician, etc, only see from the point of view of the momentarily fashionable biological or other theory. The scientist never sees himself. But the historian sees from the point of view of eternity because his history is the history of himself, and he achieves eternity not by ignoring time but just by recognising time and recognising himself as the heir of the past. Therefore to understand history is to understand oneself, which is the Delphic oracle’s formula for salvation.’ Publication: V444i; Taylor 1.187; Dreisbach 5.33.

Tim4  To: The Editor, The Times Date: 11 July 1940 Location: whereabouts of the original unknown Reference: Letters to the Editor Subject matter: Collingwood and his joint signatories [J. D. Beazley, Helen Darbishire, E. R. Dodds, A. D. Lindsay and W. D. Ross] write on the subject of the British Government’s internment of aliens during wartime. While acknowledging the priority which must be given to national security they argue that ‘genuine refugees from Nazi or Fascist oppression should be given the status of friendly aliens and granted what we have hitherto denied to most of them the chance of striking a blow against their oppressor’. Speaking of safeguarding refugees [among them many scholars and scientists who could make a considerable contribution to the war effort] from ‘the brutalities of racial fanaticism’ the letter says that, ‘If we treat such men as prisoners for a day longer than we must, we cloud our national honour; we also risk breaking our slender liaison with the underground forces of democracy in Central Europe, and alienating powerful sources of support in neutral America.’ Publication: The Times Thursday 11 July 1940, p.5. THE TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT Tls1  To: The Editor, The Times Literary Supplement Date: from the SS De Weert, off Flores, Dutch East Indies, 4 February 1939 Location: Times Literary Supplement 11 March 1939 Reference: p.149 Subject matter: errors of fact in Rudyard Kipling’s (1) story ‘A Disturber of Traffic’ [published in his Many Inventions 1893, pp.1–22] which concerns an Englishman in charge of a screw-­pile light in the Flores Strait. Collingwood writes: ‘it may interest your readers to see what crimes against the realism which was Kipling’s official literary programme were compatible with the production of a story which is among the best he ever wrote.’ Publication: published as above. (1) Kipling, Rudyard, 1865–1936; for Collingwood’s opinion of Kipling, the writer, see Principles of Art, p.70; Kipling had read Collingwood’s Speculum Mentis, in a letter to C. R. L. Fletcher, Kipling wrote, ‘I’ve read Collingwood. It’s the old finale to most things in this world – the dénouement is that there isn’t any dénouement– only deliquescence. But Collingwood’s tremendously interesting’, quoted in Charles Carrington, Rudyard Kipling, Macmillan, London, 1978, p.553.

It may have existed elsewhere & been overlooked by excavators: and I don’t see why it shouldn’t be Roman, though I don’t think the distinction between Roman and native is always easy to make in the 4th Century.’ Publication: unpublished (1) Wheeler, R. E. M., 1890–1976. A noted archaeologist, Sir Mortimer Wheeler was Keeper [later Director] of Archaeology at the National Museum of Wales from 1920 to 1926. He published a number of important works, including Prehistoric and Roman Wales [1925] and Rome beyond the Imperial Frontiers [1954]. In his autobiography, Still Digging [1955] Wheeler refers to Collingwood as a close friend and colleague with whom he collaborated on archaeological projects, especially during the 1920s. Collingwood refers to Wheeler as an adventurous spirit [An Autobiography, p.126]. Wheeler was also a popular broadcaster. In her biography of Tessa Verney Wheeler who married R. E. Mortimer Wheeler in 1914, L. C. Carr notes that Collingwood was one of the members who supported Tessa Wheeler’s election as a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries in 1928 (L. C. Carr, Tessa Verney Wheeler, Women and Archaeology before World War Two, Oxford University Press, 2012, p.128). Collingwood was one of a number of archaeological friends of the Wheelers who assisted in compiling the Report on the Excavation of the Prehistoric, Roman and Post-Roman site in Lydney Park, Gloucestershire. Collingwood also reviewed R. E. M. Wheeler and Tessa V. Wheeler, ‘Report on the Excavation of the Prehistoric, Roman and Post-Roman Site in Lydney Park, Gloucestershire’, Oxford, 1932 in the Journal of Roman Studies, 25, 1935, pp.119–20.

Collingwood remarks that ‘if it were more generally known what a lot of good work Miss T. has done for many years, she would go in under her own steam. But (i) she has always merged her work in other people’s notably F.H.’s, and hasn’t got credit for it (ii) I feel certain that there must be a lot of misogyny abroad at Burlington House, even in this enlightened age. I may add that (iii) it used to be said that candidates who were very heavily pushed and canvassed or used to be blackballed.’ He then comments on the coldness of his study at Stapleton’s Chantry and encloses a drawing of the house and study, in the snow, with a cat of eccentric habits in the foreground.

In a letter to Peter Johnson dated 17 August 1974 Wright explains how his involvement with Collingwood’s Roman Inscriptions project came about. He writes, ‘On 21 October 1938 he invited me to prepare his material for the Roman Inscriptions of Britain for publication and explained the procedure. He was then abroad, voyaging in the East Indies to restore his health. In April 1939 he invited me to Oxford and explained his methods.

Primary Bibliographies Introduction Bibliographical information is vital to any serious research. This bibliography strives to be as complete as possible. Since the appearance of the bibliographies by Donald Taylor and Christopher Dreisbach many new items by Collingwood have surfaced. These include many reviews and a number of archaeological and philosophical writings. Taken together they vividly illuminate the full range, quantity and sheer diversity of his output. In what follows we have presented Collingwood’s writings chronologically without distinguishing his writings on archaeology and history from those on philosophy. We have listed books, chapters, papers, essays, introductions and reviews. Although there is merit in distinguishing by discipline, there are greater merits in displaying the writings together for only in that way can the reader get a complete sense of the ebb and flow of Collingwood’s work in archaeology, history, philosophy and elsewhere. In addition we have listed reviews of Collingwood’s books and articles, together with obituaries. We have indicated where an article, extract or chapter was republished during Collingwood’s lifetime, but not those published in collections appearing after his death. We have not generally noted translations of Collingwood’s works (except where there is important editorial material), as the primary purpose of this bibliography is to provide guidance for scholars working on original materials and critical commentary on those materials. We have, of course, striven to give full and precise details for each published item. However, there are occasional lacunae; nonetheless, even in those cases where information is incomplete, it is important to note the existence of items rather than leave them unremarked. We have maintained a separation of published from unpublished writing. There is inevitably some overlap, in that much of Collingwood’s previously unpublished work has now been published. However, the original manuscripts remain and we have noted their details and location and also where and when they have subsequently been published.

(Kendal), and Pembroke College (Oxford). There are three Bodleian collections: first, Papers of Robin George Collingwood (1889–1943) (Ref. Dep. Collingwood 1–32); secondly, Photocopies of R. G. Collingwood Papers (Ref. MSS. Facs. c. 141–9), comprising material held elsewhere, mostly in the Sackler Library; thirdly, Correspondence between Collingwood and Gilbert Ryle (Ref. MSS. Eng. lett. d. 194, d. 194*) mentioned here because the material is essay length philosophical discussion.1 The papers are catalogued in Ruth A. Burchnall, Catalogue of the Papers of Robin George Collingwood, (1889–1943) (Dep Collingwood 1–28), Bodleian Library, Oxford, 1994. The manuscripts held in the Bodleian are generally consulted on microfilm. We have not listed items which are currently in private hands and unavailable for general consultation. Correspondence is listed only when it consists in extensive philosophical discussion or reports on manuscripts. We would like to acknowledge the help provided by the staff of the Bodleian Library over many years, especially Colin Harris, Graham Piddock, librarian at the Sackler Library, David Boucher of the Collingwood and Idealism Centre at the University of Cardiff.

Note 1. This includes both the original text and a typed copy of the text. This typescript contains inaccuracies. A corrected version of the correspondence was published in the revised edition of An Essay on Philosophical Method, edited by J. Connelly and G. D’Oro (Oxford University Press, 2005).

Secondary Bibliographies Introduction A bibliography is the first port of call for the researcher, and it is therefore essential that any bibliography should be both comprehensive and accurate. In addition, a bibliography should be relevant and focused; for this reason, inclusion of items is always a matter of judgement. Hence the reader will find that in some marginal cases we have opted for inclusion where our predecessors have opted for exclusion and vice versa. Our general principle is to include anything substantive and anything which sheds historical or critical light on Collingwood. For the most part, passing references have been excluded unless they satisfy one or other of the above criteria. We are especially indebted to the bibliographies by Christopher Dreisbach (R.G. Collingwood: A Bibliographic Checklist, Bowling Green: The Philosophy Documentation Center, 1993) and Donald Taylor (R.G. Collingwood: A Bibliography, New York: Garland, 1988). We have corrected and supplemented both, but our work would be poorer and more incomplete without them. This bibliography does not include reviews of publications or collections of essays by Collingwood; these are listed in the Primary Bibliography. We have not included purely bibliographical articles such as those by James Connelly and Susan Daniel in CBIS: we have incorporated their contents. Dr Daniel’s work has been especially helpful in locating recent secondary sources. We have included Masters and Doctoral dissertations only where they have not been published in substantially the same form. We have included archaeological works only where there is substantial discussion or criticism of Collingwood; we have therefore ignored hundreds of articles where Collingwood is referred to on points of detail without further discussion.

My debt to him is owed for all he taught me as my tutor, for his lectures, for his publications, for our conversations, for his letters during the nearly twenty years of our friendship, and for his reliquiae which I was privileged to read but which his instructions forbade me to publish. Much of his teaching I have adopted; some of his phraseology has become second nature to me. Although these lectures may owe more to Hegel than to him, they could never have been written at all if it had not been for the stimulus of his teaching and the wealth of ideas to which he opened my mind’ (Preface).
