 MODERN FRENCH PHILOSOPHY - CHAPTER I - ANTECEDENTS
Ne cherchez ailleurs le secret de nos maux.* De Musset was right, the whole course of the century was marked by conflict between two forces--on the one hand a tendency to reaction and conservatism, on the other an impulse to radicalism and revolution.
It is true that one group of thinkers endeavoured, by a perfectly natural reaction, to recall their fellow-countrymen, at this time of unrest, back to the doctrines and traditions of the past, and tried to find in the faith of the Christian Church and the practice of the Catholic religion a rallying-point.
It is the special merit of De Biran that he endeavoured, and that successfully, to establish both the concreteness and the essential spirituality of the inner life.

 Warren Schmaus - Rethinking Durkheim and His Tradition - Reviewed by Terry Godlove, Hofstra University - Philosophical ...
Instead, he was engaging a picture of Kant painted by academic philosophy in nineteenth-century France, chiefly by Victor Cousin (1792-1867), Pierre Maine de Biran (1766-1824), and Paul Janet (1823-1899).
The main point turns out to be that Durkheim absorbed from Cousin, Maine de Biran, and Janet a badly distorted account of Kant's theory of knowledge and, in particular, of the categories.
Maine de Biran "regarded apperception as a special intellectual faculty that reveals the self as noumenal object" (70); this turns Kant on his head, but, then, as Schmaus tell us, Maine de Biran never even read Kant!

Maine de Biran lui-même a considéré son Mémoire sur la décomposition de la pensée (1804) comme l'authentique point de départ de son activité philosophique.
Il s'agit en effet d'une véritable révolution qui dépasse largement le cadre historique du débat avec l'Idéologie, puisqu'elle remet profondément en cause les postulats implicites de toute métaphysique appuyée sur le dualisme.
Rompant avec la division de l'âme et du corps, Maine de Biran y élabore une philosophie de la dualité qui couple dans l'aperception (et par suite dans l'ontogenèse des facultés) force active et corps propre : la pensée est fondamentalement dualité.
