Henri Bergson: a solution to the mind-body problem?

Crítica del tratamiento bergsoniano del problema mente-cerebro, sobre la relación entre la conciencia y la materia en el hombre.

This paper aims to outline the principal philosophical dimensions of Bergson s idea of mind and its relationship to physical reality. We will examine the treatment of this long-standing metaphysical problem in the works of this philosopher, and we will show that no clear solution to this perennial question of Western thought emerges from Bergson s account of the nature of mind and matter.
