Jean Ullmo, Henri Bergson and Heidegger

Jean Ullmo died in 2002 and has little visibility on the web. The two exceptions are

1. The Agreement Between Mathematics and Physical Phenomena at Mario Bunge on Google Books
2. Is Mathematics By Nature Incapable of Describing Real Change? at Le Lionnais on Google Books

Jean Ullmo's 1969 La Pensée Scientifique Moderne from the Champs [fields] series of Flamarrion (also a 1970 with ISBN10 of 2-08-081092-8) is all but invisible on the internet.

Ullmo's book is notable for his attention to Bergson (although it lacks an index.)  The eclsipse of Bergson by Heidegger in post-1945 France is a phenomenon debated in its own right: Bergson perished during the war.

What struck me most forcefully some weeks ago was the language of the 1909 German translation of Bergson's Introduction to Metaphysics (surely Heideggerians cannot reject out of hand what language alone has conveyed.)  Heidegger links Bergson with Scheler but is otherwise dismissive of him in Being and Time.

By Ingarden's account, Husserl only became aware of Bergson on time consciousness in early 1914.
