Henri Bergson: Two Sources Of Morality And Religion - Paperback

by Irwin Edman (Editor), Herbert W. Schneider (Editor)

Henri Bergson: Two Sources of Morality and Religion is a philosophical work written by Irwin Edman that discusses the ideas and theories of French philosopher Henri Bergson. The book explores Bergson's views on the origins of morality and religion and how they are interconnected. Bergson believed that morality and religion have two sources: one that is based on instinct and the other on intuition. He argued that instinctive morality is rooted in our biological and social nature, while intuitive morality comes from our ability to tap into a higher spiritual realm. Edman's book provides an in-depth analysis of Bergson's ideas, including his concept of the ""elan vital"" or life force, and how it relates to morality and religion. The book also explores Bergson's ideas on free will, time, and the nature of consciousness. Overall, Henri Bergson: Two Sources of Morality and Religion is a comprehensive and thought-provoking work that delves into the philosophical ideas of one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, morality, and religion.THIS 86 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Landmarks For Beginners In Philosophy V2, by Irwin Edman.
