Collingwood described history as a process of what?

  • Re-enactment of Past Experience

  • Recording Factual Data

  • Predicting Future Events

  • Analysing Cultural Artifacts

Re-enacting past experiences is at the heart of history as perceived by Collingwood. This perspective implies that to fully comprehend history, we don't merely investigate events that have happened in the past but rather actively relive and interpret those events through the lens of present experiences.
