The Problem of Time in Classical Philosophy

Abstract

I begin by looking at the philosophical precedents for denying the passage of time, beginning with arguments reported by Aristotle, and ending with the arguments of McTaggart, Russell and Grünbaum. I show the fallaciousness of all these arguments, arguing that the reality of passage stands or falls with the reality of motion.
