O corpo absoluto do herói: ação concreta e verdade metafísica em Bergson

This paper will be mainly focused on the relationship between the finitude and the absolute character of the life in Bergson's metaphysics. The issue of the Absolute one is connected to the issue of the concrete reality and, therefore, of the finitude of the life, to the concrete and creative action that, as such, just can be a singular experience, of singular individuals. In other words: the experience of a body, through a body. In the case of the hero, the main character of this paper, his body is the expression of an impulse of creation of vital values, notably, moral values, in its metaphysical direction.
