In this letter, a portion of which is quoted here, Boutroux praises Bergson’s talk on psychophysical parallelism delivered at the Société française de philosophie. 1902 Sergei Alekseevitch Askoldov. “Filosofija i Zizn” in Problemy Idealizma .

The author claims that Bergson’s metaphysics prejudices his theory of laughter. Bergson sees laughter as attacking the mechanical but fails to see it as an appreciation of life. Moreover, laughter is not only socially corrective; it is socially indulgent. William James. “Letter to F. C. S. Schiller. November 27, 1902” in Ralph Barton Perry. The Thought and Character of William James. Vol. 2. Boston: Little, Brown (1935): 497-98. Print. James notes that he has read articles by two Bergson disciples, LeRoy and Wilbois. He does not find them powerful philosophically but regards them as part of a philosophical movement which is important. James puzzles over just what Bergson means.

August 23, 1905” in Ralph Barton Perry. The Thought and Character of William James. Vol. 2. Boston: Little, Brown (1935): 403-04. Print. Strong notes that he has written Henri Bergson concerning the panpsychism of G. Heymans (which had influenced William James) and their similarities with those which Bergson has developed in “Le Paralogisme psycho-physiologique.” Giuseppe Tarozzi. La varieta infinita dei fatti e la libertà morale . Palermo: Sandron (1905). Print. Eng. trans.

In this much-quoted letter, James congratulates Bergson for his L’Evolution créatrice : “O my Bergson, you are a magician, your book is a marvel . .” (p. 618). He also confesses to difficulties in understanding Bergson’s full meaning. He welcomes Bergson’s attack on the intellect, and Bergson’s defense of spontaneity and continuity, but is not convinced by his attack on the concept of “nothing.” C. A. Strong. “Letter to Henri Bergson. June 20, 1907” in Ralph Barton Perry. The Thought and Character of William James. Vol. 2. Boston: Little, Brown (1935): 537. Print. Strong notes that he is reading Bergson’s “extraordinary” L’Evolution créatrice and is inclined to accept its panpsychism but not its vitalism. Xavier Léon. “Letter to E. Halévy. August 7, 1907” in Lettere a Xavier Léon e ad altri . Ed. R. Ragghianti. Napoli: Bibliopolis (1992): 84-85n. Print. In this letter Léon notes that he has received a letter from Georges Sorel. Sorel has been immersed for a month in Bergson’s L’Evolution créatrice , which he finds “terribly difficult.” William James. “Letter to A. O. Lovejoy. September 15, 1907” in Ralph Barton Perry. The Thought and Character of William James. Vol. 2. Boston: Little, Brown (1935): 480-82. Print. James concludes his letter: “P.S. Have you read Bergson’s Evolution créatrice ? I find it perfectly glorious, though terribly obscure and unfinished.” 1908 Emile Boirac. La psychologie inconnue. Introduction et contribution à l’étude expérimentale des sciences psychiques . Paris: Alcan (1908): 346. Bibliothèque de philosophie contemporaine. Print. On pp. 40-41 the author uses Bergson’s “filter” theory of perception, as developed in Matière et mémoire (Matter and Memory ), to explain the ordinary mind’s imperviousness to psychic influence.

  • CUBISM and ABSTRACTION Background
    015_Cubism_Abstraction.doc READINGS: CUBISM AND ABSTRACTION Background: Apollinaire, On Painting Apollinaire, Various Poems Background: Magdalena Dabrowski, "Kandinsky: Compositions" Kandinsky, Concerning the Spiritual in Art Background: Serial Music Background: Eugen Weber, CUBISM, Movements, Currents, Trends, p. 254. As part of the great campaign to break through to reality and express essentials, Paul Cezanne had developed a technique of painting in almost geometrical terms and concluded that the painter "must see in nature the cylinder, the sphere, the cone:" At the same time, the influence of African sculpture on a group of young painters and poets living in Montmartre - Picasso, Braque, Max Jacob, Apollinaire, Derain, and Andre Salmon - suggested the possibilities of simplification or schematization as a means of pointing out essential features at the expense of insignificant ones. Both Cezanne and the Africans indicated the possibility of abstracting certain qualities of the subject, using lines and planes for the purpose of emphasis. But if a subject could be analyzed into a series of significant features, it became possible (and this was the great discovery of Cubist painters) to leave the laws of perspective behind and rearrange these features in order to gain a fuller, more thorough, view of the subject. The painter could view the subject from all sides and attempt to present its various aspects all at the same time, just as they existed-simultaneously. We have here an attempt to capture yet another aspect of reality by fusing time and space in their representation as they are fused in life, but since the medium is still flat the Cubists introduced what they called a new dimension-movement.

  • Courses of Instruction
    Courses of Instruction Course Enrollment Courses numbered 200-299 are sometimes open to qualified undergraduate students who have received permission of the instructor and the director of graduate studies. Undergraduate students are not permitted in any courses above 300. Double numbers separated by a hyphen indicate that credit is contingent upon completion of both courses. Double numbers separated by a comma indicate that although the course is a year-long course, credit may be received for either course or both courses. The following symbols, suffixed to course numbers, identify the small group learning experiences: S, seminar; P, preceptorial; T, tutorial; D, discussion section. The L suffix indicates that the course includes laboratory experience. C-L: denotes a course that is cross-listed or a program under which a course is listed.

    Open Theology 2020; 6: 587–605 Phenomenology of Religious Experience IV: Religious Experience and Description Jan Černý* To Hear the Sound of One’s Own Birth: Michel Henry on Religious Experience https://doi.org/10.1515/opth-2020-0103 received April 02, 2020; accepted September 10, 2020 Abstract: The article consists of two parts. The first part outlines two conceptions of religious experience that can be found in the last three philosophical books of Michel Henry: the first, broad conception of religious experience is connected with the transcendental relation of human self to God as proposed by Henry; the second, narrower conception concerns the story of salvation as told in Henry’s Christian trilogy, and acquires the form of the “second birth.” Yet the transcendental disposition of Henry’s phenomenology prevents it from developing hermeneutical tools that would guide the understanding of religious experi- ence. The second part of the article deals with the critique of Dominique Janicaud, who questioned the phenomenological methodology of Michel Henry precisely because of its religious overtone, and with the subsequent discussion incited by Janicaud’s criticism. The article defends the phenomenological status of Henry’s work by arguing that Henry’s thinking could not be rightly accused from being theological or metaphysical at the time of the publication of Janicaud’s first critique. Yet it is true that the later Christian trilogy identified the general structures of appearing with the inner life of the God of the Christian Bible, and the experience of Christian faith thus became the presupposition of Henry’s phenomenology. The article also argues that religious experience belongs to the field of phenomenological research.
