As one of the few philosophers to subject civilisation and barbarism to close analysis, R.G Collingwood was acutely aware of the interrelationship between philosophy and history.\u003cbr\u003eIn Peter Johnson's highly original work, \u003ci\u003eR.G Collingwood and the Second World War: Facing Barbarism, \u003c\/i\u003eJohnson combines historical, biographical and philosophical discussion in order to illuminate Collingwood's thinking and create the first in-depth analysis of R.G Collingwood's responses to the Second World War.\u003cbr\u003ePeter Johnson examines how R.G Collingwood's responses to the war developed from his early rejection of appeasement as a policy for dealing with Hitler's Germany, through his view of Britain's prosecution of the war once the battle with Nazism had been joined, and finally to his picture of a future liberal society in which civility is its overriding ideal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Johnson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350160644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350160644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/14\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Peter Johnson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153598001407,"sku":"9781350160644","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1b6ad444-8c35-4d44-b713-9f6cba75bc12.jpg?v=1770784556","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rg-collingwood-and-the-second-peter-johnson-9781350160644","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
