Preface
Preface serves as a welcoming point of entry into the complex yet accessible philosophy of Henri Bergson. The original inspiration for the work came from two essays published in early 1912, and this expanded edition adds more continuity and depth to clarify points that may challenge first-time readers. The writer does not intend to critique Bergson’s thought academically, as the philosopher’s ideas continue to develop. Instead, the goal is to make Bergson’s vision understandable for a broader…-

Index
In this index, Henri Bergson’s thought reveals not just a shift in philosophical method, but a deeper challenge to how existence itself is interpreted. His work moves beyond traditional structures of logic and categorization, advocating instead for a fluid approach rooted in intuition. While conventional philosophy seeks permanence in form and language, Bergson encourages thinkers to embrace change as the essence of life. His philosophy does not merely complement science—it confronts it. The rigid…-

Chapter X
The chapter depicts the passage of time on Animal Farm, where most original Rebellion participants have died or been forgotten. Only Clover, Benjamin, Moses, and the pigs remain as living links to the past. The farm has expanded with new animals who know little of the Rebellion's history, while the original ideals have eroded. Napoleon and the pigs live luxuriously, contrasting sharply with the other animals' hard lives. The windmill, once promised to bring modern comforts, now serves only to enrich the…-

Chapter VIII – Conclusion
Chapter VIII draws readers deeper into the evolving vision of Henri Bergson, where reason is no longer limited to logic alone. Instead, two distinct types of order—geometric and vital—are laid side by side, each revealing a different face of reality. Geometric order, with its straight lines and symmetry, offers a world of prediction and control. But this view, while useful in science and mathematics, cannot fully account for life’s complexity. Vital order, by contrast, is fluid, expressive, and…-

Chapter VIII
The chapter opens with the animals grappling with the aftermath of the executions, as some recall the Sixth Commandment's prohibition against killing. Clover seeks clarification and discovers the commandment now includes the phrase "without cause," justifying the pigs' actions against alleged traitors. This manipulation of memory highlights the erosion of the original revolutionary principles, as the pigs rewrite history to maintain control. The animals' confusion underscores their vulnerability to…-

Chapter VII begins with a bold challenge to one of modern philosophy’s most influential traditions. Henri Bergson, in his evolving vision of thought and life, steps away from the rigid contours drawn by thinkers like Kant. Where Kant enclosed reason within the bounds of structure and critique, Bergson sees such confinement as inadequate for understanding the living, breathing nature of thought. Rather than treating knowledge as a construct examined through static methods, he asks us to view it as part of…

Chapter VII
The chapter depicts a harsh winter on Animal Farm, where the animals struggle to rebuild the windmill amid freezing conditions and food shortages. Despite the humans' claims that the mill collapsed due to poor construction, the animals know Snowball was blamed unfairly. They work tirelessly, with Boxer's determination inspiring them, but progress is slow. The bitter cold and hunger take a toll, and the discovery of frost-ruined potatoes worsens their plight. Squealer's speeches about labor's dignity offer…-

Chapter VI opens by challenging one of the most entrenched views in classical philosophy: that perception is internal and subjective. Henri Bergson reverses this assumption, asserting that perception arises at the intersection between subject and object. Rather than treating it as something confined within the observer, he emphasizes its outward-directed nature. According to this view, what we perceive is not an internal reconstruction but a direct connection to reality. This changes the entire framework…

Chapter VI
The animals toiled relentlessly throughout the year, driven by the belief that their labor benefited their own community rather than exploitative humans. Despite grueling hours, including voluntary Sunday work enforced by ration cuts, they fell behind on tasks like sowing crops, foreshadowing a harsh winter. The windmill construction posed unexpected challenges, particularly breaking limestone boulders without human tools. Through collective ingenuity, they devised a method using gravity—dragging…-
