Laughter - Henri Bergson - Bog

Laughter: An Essay On The Meaning Of The Comic is a philosophical work written by French philosopher Henri Bergson. The book explores the nature and function of humor and laughter in society, and how it relates to human behavior and consciousness. Bergson argues that laughter is a social phenomenon that arises from the perception of incongruity or absurdity, and that it serves as a mechanism for social cohesion and the release of tension. He also examines the relationship between laughter and the human psyche, and how humor can be used as a tool for self-reflection and personal growth. The book is considered a classic of 20th-century philosophy and has influenced many subsequent works on humor and the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
