Written when Maine de Biran was coming into his philosophical
maturity, in 1807, 'Of Immediate Apperception' was the first
complete statement of his own philosophy of the will. It was the
winning entry to a competition organised by the Berlin Academie des
Sciences et Belles-Lettres on the subject of self-awareness and of
the possibility of an 'immediate apperception' of the self. It
contains the core of Biran's philosophy of effort, as it is
developed in dialogue with the tradition of British empiricism in
particular. Notably, it is in this work that Biran first reflects
on the 'lived body' and it marks the moment in which he fully
accomplishes his break away from Condillac and the Ideological
school. With enlightening critical apparatus, including an editor's
introduction, glossary, and bibliography, the publication of this
edition shows how Biran's work is pivotal for the development of
French philosophy, and makes clear his influence on the later
writings of Ravaisson and Bergson.
