Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This little volume contains the discourse delivered by Henri Bergson as President of the Académie des Sciences Morales et Politiques at its annual public meeting. It is the address which preceded the announcement of the prizes and awards bestowed by the Academy. Although it is brief, it is a message addressed directly to the heart of our people in the crisis of World War I. It has been said that war, with all its terrible evils, is the occasion of at least one good which humanity values as above price: it inspires great poetry. On the other hand, it seems to crush philosophy. Many may think that in this message it is poetry to which Bergson is giving expression. It is, however, from the depth of his philosophy that the inspiration is drawn. The full significance of the doctrines he has been teaching, and their whole moral and political bearing, are brought into clear light, focused, as it were, on the actual present struggle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those interested in a more philosphical aspect of war, ‘The Meaning of the War’ by Henri Bergson is a short non-fiction work that explores ‘Life & Matter in Conflict’, as the subtitle of the book tells us. A renowned French philosopher, Bergson delves into the history and politics of war, specifically examining Germany during World War I. This book criticizes the ideology that might is right. A policy that has been fatal for regions that neighbour Germany. To further get insight into the philosophical aspect of war, Sigmund Freud's essay ́Reflections on War and Death ́ provides a great perspective on the modern mental state of people during WWI. Henri Bergson was a French philosopher, born in 1859, who criticised his contemporary Kant, and debated Albert Einstein. In 1927, Bergson won the Nobel Prize in Literature "in recognition of his rich and vitalizing ideas and the brilliant skill with which they have been presented".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is peace an aberration? The New York Times bestselling author of Paris 1919 offers a provocative view of war as an essential component of humanity. NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW “Margaret MacMillan has produced another seminal work. . . . She is right that we must, more than ever, think about war. And she has shown us how in this brilliant, elegantly written book.”—H.R. McMaster, author of Dereliction of Duty and Battlegrounds: The Fight to Defend the Free World The instinct to fight may be innate in human nature, but war—organized violence—comes with organized society. War has shaped humanity’s history, its social and political institutions, its values and ideas. Our very language, our public spaces, our private memories, and some of our greatest cultural treasures reflect the glory and the misery of war. War is an uncomfortable and challenging subject not least because it brings out both the vilest and the noblest aspects of humanity. Margaret MacMillan looks at the ways in which war has influenced human society and how, in turn, changes in political organization, technology, or ideologies have affected how and why we fight. War: How Conflict Shaped Us explores such much-debated and controversial questions as: When did war first start? Does human nature doom us to fight one another? Why has war been described as the most organized of all human activities? Why are warriors almost always men? Is war ever within our control? Drawing on lessons from wars throughout the past, from classical history to the present day, MacMillan reveals the many faces of war—the way it has determined our past, our future, our views of the world, and our very conception of ourselves.

Download or read book The Collected Works of Henri Bergson written by Henri Bergson and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Collected Works of Henri Bergson is a monumental compilation of the philosophical writings of the esteemed French thinker. Bergson's literary style is characterized by his exploration of the nature of consciousness, time, and free will. His works present a unique blend of intuition and analysis, challenging traditional philosophical approaches with his concept of 'duration.' The depth and originality of Bergson's ideas have had a lasting impact on modern philosophy, particularly on the fields of metaphysics and epistemology. The Collected Works offers readers a comprehensive understanding of Bergson's pivotal contributions to the philosophical discourse of the 20th century. Henri Bergson, a Nobel Prize-winning philosopher, was influenced by thinkers like Kant, Hegel, and William James. His background in mathematics and biology informed his philosophical inquiries, leading him to challenge the mechanistic worldview of his time. Bergson's commitment to exploring the complexities of human experience and consciousness drove him to produce groundbreaking works that continue to shape philosophical thought today. I highly recommend The Collected Works of Henri Bergson to readers interested in delving into the profound philosophical ideas of a brilliant thinker. Bergson's writing is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally engaging, offering a rich tapestry of insights into the nature of existence and reality.

Although it is brief, it is a message addressed directly to the heart of our people in the crisis of war. To it is added a short article on the same theme, contributed to the Bulletin des Armees de la Republique, November 4, 1914. It has been said that war, with all its terrible evils, is the occasion of at least one good which humanity values as above price: it inspires great poetry. On the other hand, it seems to crush philosophy. Many may think that in this message it is poetry to which M. Bergson is giving expression.

The full significance of the doctrines he has been teaching, and their whole moral and political bearing, are brought into clear light, focussed, as it were, on the actual present struggle. Yet is there no word that breathes hatred to any person or to any race. It is by the triumph of a spiritual principle that philosophy may hope to free humanity from the oppression of a materialist doctrine.
