Beschreibung

The Collected Works of Henri Bergson is a profound exploration of the philosophical concepts of time, consciousness, and creativity through a series of essays and lectures that span more than three decades. Bergson's literary style is characterized by eloquence and clarity, engaging readers with his intuitive approach to philosophical inquiry. His work is set against the backdrop of early 20th-century thought, positioning him in critical dialogue with contemporaries such as Kant and Nietzsche, while drawing on elements of dynamism and the fluid nature of human experience. This compilation resonates deeply with the currents of existentialism and modernism, making it a vital text for understanding the evolution of contemporary philosophy. Henri Bergson, a French philosopher awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1927, was deeply influenced by the intellectual climate of his time, which emphasized rationality and scientific inquiry. His upbringing in a Jewish family and exposure to diverse cultural ideas motivated him to challenge the strictly mechanistic views of reality, leading him to emphasize intuition and the lived experience. His pioneering ideas around 'élan vital' or vital impetus reflect his belief in the perpetually evolving and creative aspects of life. For those seeking a nuanced understanding of consciousness and the human experience, The Collected Works of Henri Bergson is indispensable. This anthology not only provides a comprehensive view of his philosophical evolution but also invites readers to engage with profound questions about existence, making it essential reading for scholars, students, and anyone curious about the depths of human thought.

    Abraham Lincoln’s early years were marked by hardship, poverty, and a relentless drive to rise above his circumstances. Born in a one-room log cabin in Kentucky in 1809, Lincoln experienced the difficulties of frontier life. His family moved frequently, and his formal education was limited to less than a year’s worth of school. Yet, even in these early years, he developed a deep curiosity and love for learning. He read whatever books he could find, often borrowing them from neighbors, and was known to read by firelight late into the night. This hunger for knowledge became a central part of his identity and would later feed into his political ambitions. 
    Lincoln’s entry into politics began in Illinois, where he settled in the town of New Salem. There, he earned a reputation for honesty, storytelling, and a sharp intellect. He first ran for the state legislature in 1832 and lost, but he tried again two years later and won. As a member of the Illinois State Legislature, he began to develop his political skills and established a clear stance on important issues such as internal improvements and economic development. He aligned himself with the Whig Party, inspired by Henry Clay’s vision of a strong national economy. During this time, Lincoln also began to study law, teaching himself the subject and eventually becoming a successful lawyer in Springfield, where he built a respectable career and deepened his connections. 
    Though he was gaining traction in law and state politics, Lincoln’s ambition reached further. He served a single term in the U.S. House of Representatives in the late 1840s, during which he opposed the Mexican-American War and supported internal improvements. However, his criticism of the war was unpopular, and after his term, he faded from national politics for a while. Yet, Lincoln was far from finished. The moral and political debate over slavery rekindled his interest in national affairs.
