Collingwood's philosophy was part of which broader philosophical tradition?

  • Analytic Philosophy

  • American Pragmatism

  • British Idealism

  • Existentialism

Answer

British Idealism, the philosophical tradition to which Collingwood belonged, emphasizes that reality is fundamentally mental or spiritual in nature. Central to this tradition is the idea that the world we experience is shaped by our minds and consciousness, and that reality is ultimately knowable through reason and intuition rather than solely through sensory experience.
