"In The Dialectic of Duration Gaston Bachelard addresses the nature of time in response to the writings of his great contemporary, Henri Bergson. The work is motivated by a refutation of Bergson’s notion of duration – ‘lived time’, experienced as continuous. For Bachelard, experienced time is irreducibly fractured and interrupted, as indeed are material events. At stake is an entire conception of the physical world, an entire approach to ..."

His subject matter was diverse - to date, the texts chosen for translation into English have reflected his 'literary critical' writing career, but there remains an impressive body of untranslated work on the philosophy of sci ..."

"Through asserting the dignity of hair, is not Bachelard affirming his freedom [and]
his independence, before all monomaniacal temptations? Let us admit it: his

provocation against an absurd order. And why not? I declare that this beard is a
philosophical beard. This is the beard of the philosophy of no; it is the beard that
represents the fact that ne ..."

"For much of the twentieth century, French intellectual life was dominated by theoreticians and historians of mentalité. Traditionally, the study of the mind and of its limits and capabilities was the domain of philosophy, however in the first decades of the twentieth century practitioners of the emergent human and social sciences were increasingly competing with philosophers in this field: ethnologists, sociologists, psychologists and h ..."
