Download or read book Bergsonian Philosophy and Thomism written by Jacques Maritain and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This incisive critique of the thought of Henri Bergson is Jacques Maritain's first book. In it he shows himself already to have an authoritative grasp of the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas and an uncanny ability to show its relevance to alternative systems such as that of Bergson. It would be difficult to overestimate the role that Bergson played in helping French philosophy extricate itself from the deadening materialism which had dominated the Sorbonne. It was that materialism that brought Jacques and Raissa Maritain to the brink of suicide. They drew back for two major reasons. First was the lectures of Henri Bergson in the College de France. Here was an alternative to the thought that had made them suicidal. The second great reason was Leon Bloy and their subsequent conversion to Catholicism.It was not long before their Catholicism turned them to the thought of Thomas Aquinas. When Maritain compared Bergson and Thomas, he was immediately struck by the weaknesses of the former. This book is a relentless criticism of the philosophy of the man whose lectures had meant so much to Maritain. It is a young man's book and twenty-five years later Maritain, while not retracting his criticisms, regretted their triumphal tone. Bergson himself came into the Church on his deathbed. Knowledge of this doubtless caused Maritain to recognize a harmony beyond criticisms of this book. Bergsonian Philosophy and Thomism presents us with a philosopher who mastered his craft, a Thomist who acquired the mind of Thomas himself, and a critic of rare perception and refinement.

Download or read book Beyond Bergson written by Andrea J. Pitts and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines Bergson’s work from the perspectives of critical philosophy of race and decolonial theory, placing it in conversation with theorists from Africa, the African Diaspora, and Latin America. Building upon recent interest in Henri Bergson’s social and political philosophy, this volume offers a series of fresh and novel perspectives on Bergson’s writings through the lenses of critical philosophy of race and decolonial theory. Contributors place Bergson’s work in conversation with theorists from Africa, the African Diaspora, and Latin America to examine Bergson’s influence on literature, science studies, aesthetics, metaphysics, and social and political philosophy within these geopolitical contexts. The volume pays particular attention to both theoretical and practical forms of critical resistance work, including historical analyses of anti-racist, anti-imperialist, and anti-capitalist movements that have engaged with Bergson’s writings—for example, the Négritude movement, the Indigenismo movement, and the Peruvian Socialist Party. These historical and theoretical intersections provide a timely and innovative contribution to the existing scholarship on Bergson, and demonstrate the importance of his thought for contemporary social and political issues. “This is an exceptionally strong volume that excites and inspires the philosophical imagination; it shows the centrality of questions of race and gender to philosophical inquiry and appropriation.” — Keith Ansell-Pearson, author of Bergson: Thinking Beyond the Human Condition
Download or read book Matter and Memory written by Henri Bergson and published by Humanities Press International. This book was released on 1962 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A monumental work by an important modern philosopher, Matter and Memory (1896) represents one of the great inquiries into perception and memory, movement and time, matter and mind. Nobel Prize-winner Henri Bergson surveys these independent but related spheres, exploring the connection of mind and body to individual freedom of choice. Bergson's efforts to reconcile the facts of biology to a theory of consciousness offered a challenge to the mechanistic view of nature, and his philosophy can be regarded as a forerunner to later developments in relativity theory and conceptions of mental process. His original and innovative views exercised a profound influence on other philosophers -- including James, Whitehead, and Santayana -- as well as novelists such as Dos Passos and Proust. Essential to an understanding of Bergson's philosophy and its legacy, Matter and Memory is among Dover's Philosophical Classics. A collection of the major works in Western and Eastern philosophy, this new series ranges from ancient Greece to modern times. Its low-priced, high-quality, unabridged editions are ideal for teachers and students as well as for other readers. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Bergson and His Philosophy" by John Alexander Gunn is a landmark work that provides a detailed analysis of Henri Bergson's philosophical beliefs, a notable French philosopher of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Gunn dives deeply into Bergson's philosophical views, clarifying his thoughts on time, intuition, and the essence of reality. He delivers Bergson's ideas in a straightforward and understandable manner, making them accessible to both scholars and ordinary audiences. Bergson's concept of "duration," a major part of Bergsonian philosophy, is one of the central subjects Gunn investigates. He investigates how Bergson's ideas challenged conventional views of time and provided a fresh look at human awareness and the meaning of existence. Furthermore, Gunn places Bergson's work in historical context, offering insight on the intellectual atmosphere of the time and the influence of thinkers such as Immanuel Kant and Arthur Schopenhauer on Bergson's philosophy. In "Bergson and His Philosophy," John Alexander Gunn not only provides a clear explanation of Bergson's views, but he also exhibits his own intellectual ability. The book is an invaluable resource for anybody seeking to comprehend Henri Bergson's significant and original contributions to the realm of philosophy.
