This article provides the first detailed discussion of an objection to Kant's theory of freedom in Henri Bergson's 1904-05 lectures at the Collège de France. According to Bergson, if Kant succeeds in defending the possibility of human freedom, this is not the freedom of any particular human being, but rather the freedom of the ‘moi en général’. I compare this objection to arguments against Kant's theory of freedom by other late nineteenth/early twentieth century French philosophers such as Émile Boutroux, Charles Renouvier and Victor Delbos, as well as to one of the best known objections to this theory in the subsequent anglophone literature. I argue that Bergson's objection rests on the false assumption that, according to Kant, “there is no difference in nature… between time and space.”

柏格森论康德与一般人的自由

本文首次详细讨论了亨利·柏格森 1904-05 年在法兰西学院的演讲中对康德自由理论的反对意见。按照柏格森的说法，如果康德成功地捍卫了人类自由的可能性，这不是任何特定人的自由，而是“一般人”的自由。我将这种反对意见与 Émile Boutroux、Charles Renouvier 和 Victor Delbos 等其他 19 世纪末/20 世纪初法国哲学家反对康德自由理论的论点进行比较，以及随后的英语文献中对该理论的最著名的反对意见之一. 我认为柏格森的反对建立在一个错误的假设之上，即按照康德的说法，“在自然界中……时间和空间之间没有区别。”
