The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Temporal Experience (Routledge Handbooks in Philosophy) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Experience is inescapably temporal. But how do we experience time? Temporal experience is a fundamental subject in philosophy – according to Husserl, the most important and difficult of all. Its puzzles and paradoxes were of critical interest from the Early Moderns through to the Post-Kantians. After a period of relative neglect, temporal experience is again at the forefront of debates across a wealth of areas, from philosophy of mind and psychology, to metaphysics and aesthetics.

is organized into seven clear parts:

• Ancient and early modern perspectives
• Nineteenth and early twentieth-century perspectives
• The structure of temporal experience
• Temporal experience and the philosophy of mind
• Temporal experience and metaphysics
• Empirical perspectives
• Aesthetics

Within each part, key topics concerning temporal experience are examined, including canonical figures such as Locke, Kant and Husserl; extensionalism, retentionalism and the specious present; interrelations between temporal experience and time, agency, dreaming, and the self; empirical theories of perceiving and attending to time; and temporal awareness in the arts including dance, music and film.

is essential reading for students and researchers of philosophy of mind and psychology. It is also extremely useful for those in related fields such as metaphysics, phenomenology and aesthetics, as well as for psychologists and cognitive neuroscientists.
