Abstract

This essay examines the development of the "zones" within Murphy's mind as they relate to similar developments in the theoretical works of Henri Bergson (specifically Matter and Memory). By examining Murphy's schema of the mind in light of Bergson's forms of memory, it demonstrates how Beckett develops those theories of perception and memory to construct an innovative philosophical depiction of consciousness and cognition.
