The first of several planned volumes containing the unpublished and difficult to obtain writings of historical philosopher Oakeshott (1901-90), this collection contains 32 essays and reviews from the Oakeshott archive at the London School of Economics, dating from 1923 to 1981. Chronologically organized to illustrate the development of his thought, the essays broadly cover the nature of philosophy and its relation to other human activities, the logic of historical understanding, the nature of the state, and the philosophy of education. Distributed in the US by the Philosophy Documentation Center.
