Publisher's Synopsis

""An Introduction to Metaphysics"" is a philosophical treatise written by French philosopher Henri Bergson. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the nature of metaphysics and its relationship to science, while the second part delves into the concept of intuition and its role in understanding the world. Bergson argues that metaphysics is not a separate branch of knowledge, but rather an extension of our everyday experience. He also explores the idea that intuition, rather than reason, is the key to understanding reality, and that our perception of time is an essential factor in this understanding. The book is considered a classic in the field of metaphysics and has influenced many philosophers and thinkers.1912. M. Bergson explains, at greater length and in greater detail than in the other books, exactly what he means to convey by the word intuition The intuitive method is treated independently and not, as elsewhere in his writings, incidentally, in its applications to particular problems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
