The Creative Mind - Paperback

by Henri Bergson (Author), Mabelle L. Andison (Translator)

The Creative Mind is a book written by Henri Bergson, a French philosopher and Nobel Prize winner. In this book, Bergson explores the concept of creativity and its relationship with the human mind. He argues that creativity is not merely a product of individual genius, but rather a fundamental aspect of human consciousness that is present in all of us. Bergson also examines the role of intuition, imagination, and memory in the creative process, and how they work together to produce new ideas and innovations. The book is divided into three parts, each of which explores a different aspect of creativity. In the first part, Bergson discusses the nature of creative intuition and how it differs from other forms of knowledge. In the second part, he explores the relationship between creativity and memory, and how memory can be used to stimulate new ideas. Finally, in the third part, Bergson examines the role of imagination in the creative process, and how it can be used to transcend the limitations of the present moment. Overall, The Creative Mind is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of creativity and its place in the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
