: : : : : : : Finally, at long last, there is a server sympathetic : : : : to the thoughts of the great French vitalist, Henri : : : : Bergson! I have read all of his major works and love : : : : to discuss him. I am a writer of fiction and poetry : : : : and Bergson's vivid sense of metaphor suits me well. : : : : You'll know me in the live Bergson chat area under the : : : : nick "Wordsmith". Let's go! : : : I don't really know that much about Bergson, but I would love to learn anything that you can tell me about him, wheter it be through posts or through the chat line. E-mail me, or post a response. Got any suggestions on books I could read? : : If you are a beginner to Bergson, then try Introduction to : : Metaphysics, Mind Energy and Creative Mind to get your feet : : wet, so to speak. Then you'll be ready for Creative Evolution, : : his greatest book, in my opinion. Go for Time and Free Will : : next. If a sociological/theological work is your cup of tea : : grab Two Sources of Morality and Religion. Duration and : : Simultineity offers a challenge to the Einstienian view of the : : universe. Matter & Memory is probably the most difficult of : : of Bergson's books, but it makes Heiddeger's Being and Time look : : easy. Does that help? By the way, I'm not a philosophy student : : or even a college grad, but I am fairly well read. Later! : Oops! In the above paragraph I goofed. I didn't : mean to say Being & Time is easy. I meant to say : compared to B&T Matter & Memory is easy. Duh!
