«La Politesse» is a book of essays by French philosopher Henri Bergson, published by Rivages in paperback (80 pages, in French).
The volume includes the speech Bergson gave before turning 30 at a student prize ceremony. It analyses courtesy of the spirit, of manners and of the heart as intellectual flexibility to understand others without adopting their ideas; courtesy opens an ideal republic of freedom and equality based on consideration.
It is number 610 in the Petite Bibliothèque collection, published in 2008, with a foreword by Frédéric Worms.
For readers of philosophy and essays interested in French thought and, in particular, in the work of Henri Bergson.
Henri-Louis Bergson was a French philosopher who was influential in the traditions of analytic philosophy and continental philosophy, especially during the first half of the 20th century until the Second World War, but also after 1966 when Gilles Deleuze published Le Bergsonisme.
