Product Description

British Idealism - influenced by the character of German Idealist thought - began to establish itself during the middle of the 19th century. This study offers an introduction to British Idealism through a study of each of the seven key thinkers of the movement - T.H. Green, Bernard Bosanquet, F.H. Bradley, Henry Jones, David Ritchie, R.G. Collingwood and Michael Oakeshott. It explores the background religious, political, moral, ideolgical and economic themes which underpin the work of these thinkers and shows the relevance of their philosophy to current politics in Britain.

Editorial Reviews

Review
A first-rate contribution to contemporary scholarship on the British Idealists. . . . What makes the book especially valuable is the attempt to relate the work of the British Idealists to concerns in contemporary political philosophy or to major figures in modern philosophy outside the Idealist movement.
