Description
Bergson Thinking Beyond the Human Condition by Keith Ansell-Pearson explores the philosophy of Henri Bergson, who believed that traditional approaches to understanding human existence were limited. Instead, Bergson advocated for a more expansive approach that considers the dynamic and creative nature of reality. This book delves into Bergson's innovative ideas on philosophy, including his concept of 'thinking beyond the human condition'. Ansell-Pearson examines Bergson's interests in Epicureanism, the self, time, memory, ethics, and religion, providing a comprehensive understanding of Bergson's thought. By exploring these aspects, readers can gain insight into the art of living and the nature of reality. By re-examining Bergson's philosophy, Ansell-Pearson sheds new light on this influential thinker's ideas, making his work accessible to a new generation of readers.
