"The Principles of Art" is a 1937 treatise by R. G. Collingwood that explores the nature of art and its relationship with history and philosophy in particular. Robin George Collingwood, FBA (1889 - 1943) was an English historian, philosopher, and archaeologist most famous for his philosophical works including "Outlines of a Philosophy of Art " (1925) and the posthumously-published "The Idea of History" (1946). One of his more well-known works, "The Principles of Art" constitutes an interesting and detailed examination of the very idea of art-what it is, what it does, and what it means. Not to be missed by lovers of art and philosophy. Contents include: "Art and Craft", "Art and Representation", "Art as Magic", "Art as Amusement", "Art Proper", "Thinking and Feeling", "Sensation and Imagination", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume today in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
