    The role of closed morality in achieving rational communication: The possibility of rational communication within Bergson's non-rationalist morality
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2008) Taşdelen, Demet Kurtoğlu
    Based on Bergson's The Two Sources of Morality and Religion, the paper attempts to investigate the role of closed morality in the achievement of rational communication. The claim is made that closed morality does not only have a destructive side but also a constructive side that may be present in achieving rational communication. Considering Bergson's ideas about the plane of intellectuality, the author intends to find a place for rational communication within Bergson's non-rational ist morality. Founded on the fact that closed morality and open morality are extreme limits and therefore cannot be found in a society in their pure form, the author claims that rational communication can be present in the transition stage between the closed soul and the open soul.
