Summary/Abstract: The author presents a study on the meaning of duration and time in Bergson’s works Durée et simultanéité and Essai sur les données immédiates de la conscience. It explains Bergson’s concept of the theory of relativity and the difficulties related to it, such as: the theory of relativity’s meaning of coincidence and intuitive or absolute coincidence; difficulties regarding supporting systems, problems of single time and multiple times, real time and symbolic or conventional time. In this sense some important thoughts are emphasized regarding the discussion between Bergson and Einstein, held on 6th April 1922. It concludes with a brief overview of the evaluations and discussions that accompanied Bergson’s explanation of the theory of relativity.
