Henri Bergson (1859-1941) was one of the most celebrated and influential philosophers
of the twentieth century. He was awarded in 1928 the Nobel prize for literature for
his philosophical work, and his controversial ideas about time, memory and life shaped
generations of thinkers, writers and artists. In this clear and engaging introduction,
Mark Sinclair examines the full range of Bergson's work. The book sheds new light
on familiar aspects of Bergson's thought, but also examines often ignored aspects
of his work, such as his philosophy of art, his philosophy of technology and the relation
of his philosophical doctrines to his political commitments. After an illuminating
overview of his life and work, chapters are devoted to the following topics: the experience
of time as duration; the experience of freedom; memory; mind and body; laughter and
humour; knowledge; art and creativity; the elan vital as a theory of biological life;
ethics, religion, war and modern technology. With a final chapter on his legacy, Bergson
is an outstanding guide to one of the great philosophers. Including chapter summaries,
annotated further reading and a glossary, it is essential reading for those interested
in metaphysics, time, free will, aesthetics, the philosophy of biology, continental
philosophy and the role of European intellectuals in World War I
