Time and Free Will: An Essay on the Immediate Data of Consciousness is a philosophical work by French philosopher Henri Bergson. First published in 1889, the book explores the concept of time and its relation to human consciousness. Bergson argues that time is not a fixed or measurable quantity, but rather a subjective experience that is intimately tied to our individual consciousness. He proposes that our perception of time is shaped by our emotions and our free will, and that our ability to act freely in the present moment is what gives meaning to our lives. Bergson’s ideas have had a significant impact on modern philosophy and psychology, and continue to be studied and debated by scholars today. This edition includes an introduction by the translator, which provides context for Bergson’s ideas and their historical significance.1913.
