Philosophical Intuition
Q

Which modern philosopher spoke at length about intuition?

ChatGPT

Henri Bergson, a prominent modern philosopher, is well-known for his extensive discussion on intuition. Bergson, a key figure in early 20th-century philosophy, argued that intuition is a deeper form of understanding than rational thought or analytical processes. According to Bergson, intuition is a kind of immediate experience or insight that transcends intellectual concepts and is closely connected to our direct experience of time and consciousness.

Bergson’s philosophy highlights intuition as a means to grasp the continuous flow of life or “duration” (durée), which he considered as the fundamental reality. He posited that traditional scientific and analytical methods are inadequate for understanding the complexity and fluidity of life. Instead, he advocated for intuition as a method to experience and understand life’s dynamism and the essence of personal experience more fully.

His ideas on intuition were influential in various fields, including metaphysics, psychology, literature, and even influenced later existential and phenomenological philosophies.
