Henri-Louis Bergson
Henri-Louis Bergson was a French philosopher born in 1859, renowned for his influential ideas on time, consciousness, and free will. He emphasized the importance of intuition over intellect, arguing that life and reality are best understood through direct experience rather than abstract reasoning. Bergson's works, such as 'Time and Free Will' and 'Creative Evolution,' played a pivotal role in the philosophical discourse of the early 20th century, earning him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1927. His thoughts on the fluidity of time and the dynamic nature of life continue to resonate in contemporary philosophy and science.
