Abstract

We take as object of analysis Bergson's early work, Extraits de Lucrèce, trying to show that by privileging the negative existential implications of determinism, he prefigures and justifies his having dedicated a great deal of his later philosophical thought to a criticism of determinism and a defense of liberty.Tomamos como objeto de análise a obra precoce de Bergson, os Extraits de Lucrèce, procurando mostrar que ao privilegiar as implicações existenciais negativas do determinismo, prefigura e justifica o fato de dedicar grande parte de seu pensamento filosófico posterior à crítica ao determinismo e à defesa da liberdade
