Robin G. Collingwood zählt zu jenen großen britischen Universalgelehrten, die auf ebenso scharfsinnige wie elegante Weise die unterschiedlichsten wissenschaftlichen Disziplinen in ihren Schriften verbinden. Mit Die Idee der Natur liegt nun eines seiner Hauptwerke erstmals auf deutsch vor. Anhand der drei großen Epochen kosmologischen Denkens in Europa – der Kosmologie der Griechen, der Renaissance und der Moderne – zeichnet Collingwood die Geschichte des Naturbegriffs als eine Geschichte wachsenden Mißverstehens nach, die die zunehmende Trennung zwischen Naturwissenschaften und Philosophie dokumentiert. Diese »Kluft des Mißverstehens« muß jedoch überbrückt werden, denn sie schlägt sich in einer moralischen Korrumpierbarkeit der aus den Naturwissenschaften abgeleiteten Weltanschauungen nieder. Die Idee der Natur ist nicht nur ein Glanzstück philosophischer Literatur, sondern auch ein wichtiger Beitrag zu den aktuellen Debatten zwischen der Philosophie und den Naturwissenschaften.

This treatise on aesthetics begins by showing that the word 'art' is used as a name not only for 'art proper' but also for certain things which are 'art falsely so called'. These are craft or skill, magic and amusement, each of which, by confusion with art proper, generates a false aesthetic theory. In the course of attacking these theories the author criticizes various psychological theories of art, offers a new theory of magic, and reinterprets Plato's so-called 'attack on art', showing that it has been entirely misunderstood. Finally, he draws important inferences concerning the position of art in human society.
