Dear all, next week (Friday the 10th) we'll introduce the topic of the experience of time. After discussing Einstein's theory of relativity and its devastating consequences for Dynamical theories of time over the past 2 seminars, I will now briefly comment on some possible responses. Having done that, for the following 2 seminars we shall assume that time does not pass, and we shall try to answer the question: why does it seem to pass?
The reading for this week is Dainton's essay The Perception of Time, from the Blackwell Companion to the Philosophy of Time (chapter #23).
Essential Readings:
Dainton - The Perception of Time (ch. 23)
