This volume presents a significant Soviet-era Russian translation of two major works by the influential British philosopher and historian Robin George Collingwood (1889-1943). Published in 1980 as part of the prestigious academic series "Monuments of Historical Thought" by the USSR Academy of Sciences' publishing house "Nauka", this edition makes Collingwood's seminal ideas accessible to a Russian-speaking audience. The book comprises his posthumously published masterpiece, The Idea of History (1946), a foundational text in the philosophy of history exploring historical method, evidence, and re-enactment of past thought, alongside his intellectual Autobiography (1939). The translation was prepared by Yu. A. Aseev, and the volume includes a substantial introductory article by the Soviet philosopher M. Ya. Kissel, providing critical context and analysis of Collingwood's thought within Marxist and Western philosophical traditions. As a well-produced hardcover in an enlarged format, this edition represents a key moment in the Soviet reception of 20th-century Western historiography and philosophical thought.
