The turn of the 20th century marked a pivotal moment in the history of philosophy. It was a time of great intellectual upheaval and innovation, as thinkers sought to challenge the dominant paradigms of the past and forge new paths forward. One of the most important figures of this period was Henri Bergson, a French philosopher who sought to revolutionize our understanding of time, consciousness, and the nature of reality itself.
Bergson’s philosophy stands in contrast to many of the dominant schools of thought that preceded it. For centuries, philosophers had emphasized the importance of reason, logic, and empirical evidence in gaining knowledge about the world. But Bergson rejected this approach, arguing that these methods were limited in their ability to capture the true nature of reality.
