Description: Understanding Bergson, Understanding Modernism by Paul Ardoin, Professor S.E. Gontarski, Dr. Laci Mattison Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A wide-ranging reassessment of Henry Bergsons immense influence on literary Modernism. Publisher Description Henri Bergson is frequently cited amongst the holy trinity of major influences on Modernism-literary and otherwise-alongside Sigmund Freud and William James. Gilles Deleuzes Bergsonism has re-popularized Bergson for the 21st century, so much so that, perhaps, our Bergson is Deleuzes Bergson.Despite renewed interest in Bergson, his influence remains understudied and consequently undervalued. While books examining the impact of Freud and James on Modernism abound, Bergsons impact, though widely acknowledged, has been closely examined much more rarely. Understanding Bergson, Understanding Modernism remedies this deficiency in three ways. First, it offers close readings and critiques of six pivotal texts. Second, it reassesses Bergsons impact on Modernism while also tracing his continuing importance to literature, media, and philosophy throughout the twentieth and into the 21st century. In its final section it provides an extended glossary of Bergsonian terms, complete with extensive examples and citations of their use across his texts. The glossary also maps the influence of Bergsons work by including entries on related writers, all of whom Bergson either corresponded with or critiqued.
