The Henri Bergson Megapack: 5 Classic Non-Fiction Works in English Translation

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Henri-Louis Bergson (1859—1941) was a major French philosopher, influential especially in the first half of the 20th century. Bergson convinced many thinkers that immediate experience and intuition are more significant than rationalism and science for understanding reality.

He was awarded the 1927 Nobel Prize in Literature "in recognition of his rich and vitalizing ideas and the brilliant skill with which they have been presented." In 1930, France awarded him its highest honour, the Grand-Croix de la Legion d'honneur.

This volume collects five of Bergson's works, including his classic study Creative Evolution. All original footnotes and introductions are included.

Contents:

CREATIVE EVOLUTION
DREAMS
LAUGHTER: AN ESSAY ON THE MEANING OF THE COMIC
THE MEANING OF THE WAR
THE FORCE WHICH WASTES AND THAT WHICH DOES NOT WASTE

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
