Book Synopsis The Language and Reality of Time by : Thomas Sattig
Download or read book The Language and Reality of Time written by Thomas Sattig and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-05-11 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Sattig's book develops a comprehensive framework for doing philosophy of time. He brings together a variety of different perspectives, linking our ordinary conception of time with the physicist's conception, and linking questions about time addressed in metaphysics with questions addressed in the philosophy of language. Within this framework, Sattig explores the temporal dimension of the material world in relation to the temporal dimension of our ordinary discourse about theworld.The discussion is centred around the dispute between three-dimensionalists and four-dimensionalists about whether the temporal profile of ordinary objects mirrors their spatial profile. Are ordinary objects extended in time in the same way in which they are extended in space? Do they have temporal as well as spatial parts? Four-dimensionalists say 'yes', three-dimensionalists say 'no'. Sattig develops an original three-dimensionalist picture of the material world, and argues that this pictureis preferable to its four-dimensionalists rivals if ordinary thought and talk are taken seriously. Among the issues that Sattig discusses are the metaphysics of persistence, change, composition, location, coincidence, and relativity; the ontology of past, present, and future; and the semantics ofpredication, tense, temporal modifiers, and sortal terms.

Book Synopsis Thomas Jefferson, Time, and History by : Hannah Spahn
Download or read book Thomas Jefferson, Time, and History written by Hannah Spahn and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the famous opening to the Declaration of Independence ("When in the course of human events..."), almost all of Thomas Jefferson's writings include creative, stylistically and philosophically complex references to time and history. Although best known for his "forward-looking" statements envisioning future progress, Jefferson was in fact deeply concerned with the problem of coming to terms with the impending loss or fragmentation of the past. As Hannah Spahn shows in Thomas Jefferson, Time, and History, his efforts to promote an exceptionalist interpretation of the United States as the first nation to escape from the "crimes and calamities" of European history were complicated both by his doubts about the outcome of the American experiment and by his skepticism about the methods and morals of eighteenth-century philosophical history. Spahn approaches the conundrum of Jefferson's Janus-faced, equally forward- and backward-oriented thought by discussing it less as a matter of personal contradiction and paradox than as the expression of a late Newtonian Enlightenment, in a period between ancient and modern modes of explaining change in time. She follows Jefferson in his creation of an influential narrative of American and global history over the course of half a century, opening avenues into a temporal and historical imagination that was different from ours, and offering new assessments of the solutions Jefferson and his generation found (or failed to find) to central moral and political problems like slavery.
Book Synopsis Thomas Hardy and the Survivals of Time by : Andrew Radford
Download or read book Thomas Hardy and the Survivals of Time written by Andrew Radford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A systematic exploration of Thomas Hardy's imaginative assimilation of particular Victorian sciences, this study draws on and swells the widening current of scholarly attention now being paid to the cultural meanings compacted and released by the nascent 'sciences of man' in the nineteenth century. Andrew Radford here situates Hardy's fiction and poetry in a context of the new sciences of humankind that evolved during the Victorian age to accommodate an immense range of literal and figurative 'excavations' then taking place. Combining literary close readings with broad historical analyses, he explores Hardy's artistic response to geological, archaeological and anthropological findings. In particular, he analyzes Hardy's lifelong fascination with the doctrine of 'survivals,' a term coined by E.B. Tylor in Primitive Culture (1871) to denote customs, beliefs and practices persisting in isolation from their original cultural context. Radford reveals how Hardy's subtle reworking of Tylor's doctrine offers a valuable insight into the inter-penetration of science and literature during this period. An important aspect of Radford's research focuses on lesser known periodical literature that grew out of a British amateur antiquarian tradition of the nineteenth century. His readings of Hardy's literary notebooks disclose the degree to which Hardy's own considerable scientific knowledge was shaped by the middlebrow periodical press. Thus Thomas Hardy and the Survivals of Time raises questions not only about the reception of scientific ideas but also the creation of nonspecialist forms of scientific discourse. This book represents a genuinely new perspective for Hardy studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Only a wayfarer born under unruly stars would attempt to put into practice in our epoch of proliferating knowledge the Heraclitean dictum that `men who love wisdom must be inquirers into very many things indeed.'"

Fraser does offer "many things indeed"--an enormous range of ideas about matter, life, death, evolution, and value.
Book Synopsis Thomas Wolfe: Of Time and the River, You Can't Go Home Again & Look Homeward, Angel by : Thomas Wolfe
Download or read book Thomas Wolfe: Of Time and the River, You Can't Go Home Again & Look Homeward, Angel written by Thomas Wolfe and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-12-26 with total page 2683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You Can't Go Home Again" – George Webber has written a successful novel about his family and hometown. When he returns to that town, he is shaken by the force of outrage and hatred that greets him. Family and lifelong friends feel naked and exposed by what they have seen in his books, and their fury drives him from his home. Outcast, George Webber begins a search for his own identity. It takes him to New York and a hectic social whirl; to Paris with an uninhibited group of expatriates; to Berlin, lying cold and sinister under Hitler's shadow. "Look Homeward, Angel" is an American coming-of-age story. The novel is considered to be autobiographical and the character of Eugene Gant is generally believed to be a depiction of Thomas Wolfe himself. Set in the fictional town and state of Altamont, Catawba, it covers the span of time from Eugene's birth to the age of 19. "Of Time and the River" is the continuation of the story of Eugene Gant, detailing his early and mid-twenties. During that time Eugene attends Harvard University, moves to New York City, teaches English at a university there, and travels overseas with his friend Francis Starwick.
Book Synopsis Thomas Bradwardine: A View of Time and a Vision of Eternity in Fourteenth-Century Thought by : Edith Wilks Dolnikowski
Download or read book Thomas Bradwardine: A View of Time and a Vision of Eternity in Fourteenth-Century Thought written by Edith Wilks Dolnikowski and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume evaluates Thomas Bradwardine's view of time as a mathematical, philosophical and theological concept within the context of ancient and medieval discussions of the problem of time. The book begins with an historiographical analysis of Bradwardine's mathematical and theological works, followed by an examination of the problem of time in classical, early medieval and thirteenth-century texts. Next, a series of chapters surveys Bradwardine's view of time as it related to proportionality, contingency, continuity and predestination. A final chapter establishes Bradwardine's place among fourteenth-century natural philosophers and theologians. As it uses a wide range of Bradwardine's writings, this book is able to show how Bradwardine's philosophical and theological views converged. This study is especially useful for historians of late medieval science, philosophy and theology.
Download or read book Tomi's Time written by Tom Zarzaca and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OMI'S TIME chronicles the unthinkable happening to a baby after he contracted bacterial meningitis at nine months of age--and then survived the advanced states of this devastating brain infection.Such an outcome for our previously healthy son was as remote to us as any star in space. We were new parents; the previous nine months saw nothing but pure delight, and we had no real perspective on just how utterly a life can change. But in a period of time that's often measured in hours, Tomi went from typically sick--to seizure--to severely brain damaged, in a wave of strokes that would define the rest of his life. These events left Tomi in silence and darkness, disoriented and uncoordinated in the space around him, lost in the space within, seizing without control, and with a global development delay that has permanently returned our newborn baby to us.This, however, is neither the end of the story nor the sum of all things--even though it hasn't felt this way, at times. This is the point where Tomi's end met new life and where recovery began for all of us. This is a way in which healing and recovery of one means the same for others, and this is why "perspective" for us (and arguably everyone else) is everything. So in these ways, what just happened to us is only the beginning.
