The Metaphysics of Time: An introduction
Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Here I discuss the two main views that are advocated in the literature of contemporary philosophy of time. This video is not intended to be a representation of the views that I hold personally, but a reflection on the current publications within philosophy of time. As promised, here are some links to further information; – but these links are by no means conclusive and there is a vast array of arguments and counter-arguments that were not discussed here.
