More about the book
The exploration of free will is central to this seminal work, where Bergson argues that the concept arises from a misunderstanding of the nature of time. He introduces his theory of duration, distinguishing between the qualitative experience of time and the quantitative measurement of it. This innovative perspective had a significant impact on continental philosophy, influencing thinkers in the years that followed. Originally published as his doctoral thesis in 1889, the essay remains a crucial text in understanding consciousness and the philosophy of time.
