The Creative Mind - Henri Bergson - Bog

The Creative Mind by Henri Bergson is a philosophical exploration of the nature of creativity and the creative process. Bergson argues that creativity is an essential aspect of human existence and that it arises from the tension between the individual's inner life and the external world. He contends that creativity is not a purely rational or logical process but rather involves intuition, imagination, and the ability to see beyond the surface of things. Bergson draws on a range of examples from literature, art, and science to illustrate his ideas, exploring the work of figures such as Shakespeare, Leonardo da Vinci, and Einstein. He also examines the role of the unconscious mind in the creative process and the relationship between creativity and freedom. Throughout the book, Bergson emphasizes the importance of individuality and the unique perspective that each person brings to the creative process. He argues that creativity is not a fixed or predetermined trait but rather something that can be cultivated and developed through practice and reflection. Written in a clear and accessible style, The Creative Mind is a thought-provoking and inspiring exploration of one of the most fundamental aspects of human experience. It remains a seminal work in the field of philosophy and creativity and continues to influence contemporary discussions on these topics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
