«Matter and Memory» is the philosophy essay by Henri Bergson, published by CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform in paperback (158 pages).
Bergson analyzes the relationship between mind, memories and spirit and how memories are formed, preserved and shape the individual. The work responds to Théodule Ribot, who reduced memory to the nervous system, and argues that the spirit is not limited to molecular activity and distinguishes types of memory and their relationship with the physical world.
The work was originally published in 1896 under the title «Matière et mémoire»; the illustrated English edition appeared in December 2016.
Aimed at students and readers of philosophy, psychology and cognitive science, with particular application in the university setting.
Henri-Louis Bergson was a French philosopher who was influential in the traditions of analytic philosophy and continental philosophy, especially during the first half of the 20th century until the Second World War, but also after 1966 when Gilles Deleuze published Le Bergsonisme.
