Reprint - first 'New Eversley Series' edition. vii, 200pp. Henri-Louis Bergson (1859-1941) was a French philosopher who was influential in the traditions of analytic philosophy and continental philosophy. Laughter is a collection of three essays, first published in the French review Revue de Paris. In the work, Bergson develops a theory not of laughter itself but of how laughter can be provoked. He describes the process of laughter, used in particular by comics and clowns, as caricature of the mechanistic nature of humans (habits, automatic acts, etc.), one of the two tendencies of life (degradation towards inert matter and mechanism, and continual creation of new forms). However, he warns that laughter's criterion of what should be laughed at is not a moral criterion and that it can in fact cause serious damage to a person's self-esteem. The book is bound in the original maroon cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine and a blind-stamped publisher's emblem on the front board. The case of the book is in very good condition with light bumping to the bottom of the spine and a touch of fading to the top of the spine. The contents are tight and clean with a name written on the front free endpaper. The unclipped dustwrapper is very good with some shelf wear and light soiling and browning to the spine. There is some rubbing along the top edge and the top of the spine is bumped and chipped with small pieces missing from the spine corners. There is a scrape near the bottom of the spine that has caused a small tear that has been repaired on the reverse with a strip of document repair tape.
