Chapter 4 – Machine-made Men
Chapter 4 - Machine-made Men opens with a moment both humorous and frustrating: a personal-looking letter turns out to be nothing more than a printed pitch for suspenders and disposable collars. That small deception sparks a larger reflection on how daily life has been taken over by a flood of inventions, most of them unnecessary. These gadgets, born from a culture addicted to novelty, promise efficiency but deliver only confusion. Instead of simplifying life, they overcomplicate it with moving parts,…-

Chapter 3 - Cyrano, Rostand, Coquelin begins with a reflection on how true brilliance can withstand flawed translation, much like fine wine still satisfying even in a cracked glass. When Cyrano de Bergerac crossed into English, its wit, charm, and emotional depth refused to be dulled. Rostand’s voice remained intact, thanks in part to Richard Mansfield’s resolve to keep the production honest to the original. Despite the translator’s limitations, the play retained its soul—an achievement owed not…

Chapter 2 – Domestic Despots
Chapter 2 - Domestic Despots explores the strange but familiar reality where dogs, rather than humans, appear to be in charge of the household. Within these homes, the owners are not masters but servants—fetching, feeding, and fussing at the slightest whim of a pawed commander. The dog’s comfort becomes paramount, its presence dictating where one sits, how loudly one speaks, and whether one travels at all. Vacations are shortened or skipped altogether, dinner menus are altered, and furniture becomes…-

Chapter 1 – “Uncle Sam”
Chapter 1 - "Uncle Sam" begins with an unexpected legacy born from an ordinary act: the naming of a hill and town in upstate New York. The choice of “Troy” and “Mount Ida,” though perhaps intended to summon classical grandeur, would later become the quiet backdrop for a national icon’s origin. Amid the daily rhythms of early 19th-century life, Samuel Wilson, a local man known for his cheer and generosity, built more than a business—he built trust. Children called him “Uncle Sam” with…-

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 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 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 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 V invites readers into Henri Bergson’s original vision of inner experience, a philosophy that reshapes how we understand thought, time, and freedom. He departs from the prevailing view of consciousness as a collection of separate parts. Instead, he argues that mental life flows like a melody, where each note influences the one before and after. Bergson sees consciousness as layered and continuous, not mechanical or static. This movement, which he calls “duration,” cannot be sliced into…
