OverviewHenri-Louis Bergson (1859-1941) was a French philosopher who is widely and rightly regarded to be amongst the most significant thinkers for Gilles Deleuze's work. In turn, Deleuze is largely responsible for reviving and contouring the prevailing interest in Bergson's work through his 1988 book Bergsonism. This critical introduction and guide to Bergsonism gives readers of both Deleuze and Bergson an opportunity to discover and fully connect with the philosophical encounter between these two great thinkers.

Table of ContentsReviewsAs well as being a serious and dedicated scholar of Deleuze and Bergson, Lundy shows in this book that he is an assured and able writer. Overall, he succeeds in ably guiding the untutored reader through the intricate details and complex depths of Deleuze's engagement with Bergson and his attachment to 'Bergsonism' as a project of original philosophy ... Each of Lundy's chapters contains helpful and succinct demonstrations and, overall, he does a superb job of illuminating the character of Deleuze's engagement with Bergson and showing why without an appreciation of his ideas Deleuze's own philosophy is largely unintelligible. -- Keith Ansell-Pearson, University of Warwick, NDPR Author InformationCraig Lundy is Reader in Politics at London Metropolitan University.
