About The Author
Henri Bergson
Henri Bergson (1859-1941) was a French philosopher, best known for his influential arguments that processes of immediate experience and intuition are more significant than abstract rationalism and science for understanding reality. His work influenced many thinkers, writers, and artists, especially during the first half of the 20th century. He is particularly known for his theories of duration, memory, and vitalism. Bergson won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1927.
