ABSTRACT
If we limit ourselves to the case of a geometry reduced to the properties of order in a line, we raise again, although from a different viewpoint, a little problem stated by Bergson in these terms: “… imagine an indefinite straight line and on this line a material point A which moves. If this point were to become self conscious, it would feel itself change since it is in motion; it would apprehend a quality of succession; but would this succession assume for him the form of a straight line?” (Données immédiates, p. 78).
