TIME AND SOUL From Aristotle to St. Augustine

Funder: Einstein Center Chronoi OPEN ACCESS

In Book IV of his Physics, Aristotle asked whether time could exist without a soul that counts it. As a result, philosophers throughout antiquity tackled the problem of subjective time and its relation to the physical time of the cosmos. The present book gives an account of this debate. It analyses the contributions made by Aristotle and his Peripatetic followers but also discusses Neoplatonist and Early Christian authors including St. Augustine.

Neoanalysis has established itself as one of the two leading schools of interpretation in Homeric studies (together with the theory of Oral Poetry) since its introduction by J.T. Kakridis and its subsequent development by H. Pestalozzi, W. Schadewaldt and W. Kullmann. The book traces the history of the neoanalytical theory from its first beginnings in the 1940’s and 1950’s until its recent transformation into an “Oral Neoanalysis”.

This book discusses the various constructions of time in apocalyptic texts. The contributions cover Rabbinic and Christian texts, including texts such as end-time texts in Midrashim, the apocryphal apocalypses of Thomas and John, and post-Islamic Christian visions. The volume also offers systematic contributions on political eschatology, on typologies as apocalyptic text tool and the history of research on time in the apocryphal literature.
