Henri-Louis Bergson, a prominent French philosopher, emphasized the importance of immediate experience and intuition over rationalism in understanding reality. Awarded the 1927 Nobel Prize in Literature, he challenged mechanistic views of causality, advocating for the recognition of free will as an autonomous force. Bergson's innovative concept of Duration redefined time, space, and causality, allowing for a harmonious relationship between free will and the unfolding of events. His ideas significantly influenced philosophical thought in the early 20th century.
