The Present Time

Živan Bezić

Abstract

Time is a relative concept containing the events happening in it
and their duration. Aristotle defined time as something happening
"before" and "after" in relation to anything else. This temporality of
things is the ground of their temporarity. The time-before and the
time-after are meet in the now-point. That is the meeting point of
past and future time, the dividing spot and a boundary between old
and new.

Keywords

relativity of time; before; after; present time; now-point
