Sumario: | This book, 'Ensayo sobre los datos inmediatos de la conciencia' by Henri Bergson, challenges the dominant scientific and mechanistic views of the late 19th century. Bergson critiques the limitations of rationalism and scientism, advocating for a metaphysical approach grounded in intuition rather than reason. He emphasizes the concept of 'duration,' a pure form of time and consciousness distinct from measurable scientific time. Bergson argues for a true empiricism rooted in the concrete realities of life rather than abstract concepts. His work seeks to reconcile metaphysics and science, proposing that intuition provides a deeper understanding of reality. The book is intended for readers interested in philosophy, particularly those exploring the intersections of metaphysics, consciousness, and the limitations of scientific knowledge.
