1869‐1944
French philosopher. He served as a professor at the Sorbonne for many years and had a profound influence on the philosophical world of his time. Although he took the position of critical idealism, he acknowledged the development and progress of reason and explored the nature of the mind at work in the history of human thought. As a scholar of Pascal, he is also known for compiling the Collected Works of Pascal and Pensées. His major works include The Stages of Mathematical Philosophy (1912), Human Experience and Physical Causality (1921), and The Progress of Consciousness in Western Philosophy (1927).
