The interdisciplinarity of social gerontology encourages the use of the achievements of various sciences, the instruments of which may be helpful in deepening the knowledge about old age. In this article, the proposed source of inspiration for research on old age becomes the category of time. It shows the basic meaning of this category in reference to philosophical thought, its current use in research on old age. The review has a character signaling philosophical contexts, without embedding these concepts in the contexts of the history of philosophy. In addition, it is detailed in areas and questions which can inspire researchers on old age to use the category of time as both research canvas and interpretation canvas.

The article is an attempt at an interdisciplinary look at time. The concept of time is equivocal, and thus interpreted differently by various sciences. The presentation of time issue starts with the domain of economics, by describing time by means of using economic categories such as market, supply, demand, value, price, profit and loss. The economic analysis is concentrated around a question how much time costs, and how much free time costs. Further on the issue is presented from a philosophical perspective, followed by theological concepts of time. They all are linked by a reference to Christian understanding of time based on the person of Jesus Christ, who became “the fullness of time” and the centre of the history. The interdisciplinary analysis enables looking at time as an assignment, the taking of which by a man in his earthly life makes him open to the eternity.

The leap from primitive to scientific time represented as the “time” in “relativity physics,” or in “thermodynamics” or perhaps in “quantum physics” or even within “statistical mechanics” is large. Large also is the conceptual difference between these various understandings of the nature of time. How are we really to understand these physical perspectives on time: As knowledge about the real nature of time represented by the objective concepts: Or as epistemological-operational abstractions that cannot avoid elevating their results to the level of full-fledged reality, to ontology?

ime, Duration and Freedom – Bergson’s Critical Move Against Kant

Research into Bergson’s philosophy downplays a key development in his first work, Time and free will. It is there that Bergson explicitly opposes himself to Kant by arguing that succession is not a temporal concept, but a spatial one. This is the crucial point of departure for Bergson’s entire philosophy, one that allows him to radically dismiss Kant’s notion of freedom in favor of one based on duration and multiplicity. This text has two aims. Firstly to add to Bergson scholarship by explicating the structure and force of Bergson’s initial argument against Kant, demonstrating that his engagement with Kant is much less incremental than has been suggested in secondary literature. Secondly, to reconstruct the consequences regarding freedom that Bergson immediately draws in departing from Kant, which illustrates the profundity and originality of his thought at the very inception of his oeuvre.

There are two main streams for interpreting the Bible in postmodern hermeneutics, Reader-Response Criticism and Reception History. They have things in common, namely the “dialogical” character of analysis. However, they differ significantly in their perception of the role of time and tradition. Reader-Response is a purely synchronic approach; it has no interest in either time or tradition in its analysis. Scholars of Reader-Response claim that there is no persistency of meaning throughout time. On the one hand, we see this as a deficiency because it suggests that there is no such a thing as meaning of the text at all. On the oth- er hand, it leaves enough space for original interpretation. Scholars of Reception History insist on the continuity of meaning throughout time. Thus they claim that there really is something which we may call the “core meaning” of the text to which new interpretations add new significances. However, they risk the other extreme – over-reliance on the tradition and dismissal of interpretations which are not in continuity with the tradition. David P. Parris brings in a concept of “paradigm shift”, which takes tradition into account but leaves enough space for the originality of new interpretations.

54% of U.S. teens say they spend too much time on their cellphones and two-thirds of parents express concern over their teen´s screen time. However parents face their own challenges of device-related distraction. Pew Research Center is a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping America and the world. It does not take policy positions. It conducts public opinion polling, demographic research, content analysis and other data-driven social science research. The Center studies U.S. politics and policy; journalism and media; internet, science and technology; religion and public life; Hispanic trends; global attitudes and trends; and U.S. social and demographic trends. Amid rolling debates about the impact of screen time on teenagers, roughly half of those ages 13 to 17 are themselves worried they spend too much time on their cellphones. Some 52% of U.S. teens report taking steps to cut back on their mobile phone use, and a similar percentage have tried to limit their use of social media (57%) or video games (58%), a new Pew Research Center survey finds.

Creativity studies seem to be a stronghold for individual-based psychological theories. The reasons for this are numerous and complex and, among them, we can identify certain limited or counter-productive ways of conceptualising the social. In this reply to comments I address both the status of the social in creativity studies and the dichotomies that follow from adopting an external view of society and culture. Among them, the separation between creative potential and achievement is particularly problematic, as it constructs a reified, static, and individual notion of potential, reflected in the measurement of divergent thinking. I propose, towards the end, a perspectival model of creativity that radically socialises divergent thinking by placing the social at the core rather than the periphery of creative production. Finally, I suggest that including time into our theory and research holds the key to overcoming many of the false dichotomies that underline creativity studies, at least in psychology. A thoroughly social perspective on creativity might seem like a daring or foolish endeavour but it is, in my view, also the most promising.

The Romanian-born European writer Vintilă Horia - whose birth centenary is celebrated this year - was a genuine searcher of truth. His entire work pleads for transgressive-integrating knowledge, in opposition to binary logic and scientism; it is the privileged space of articulation between cognition, creation and gnosis, between the apophatism of science, mystic apofatism and artistic apofatism. Although much less known than the trilogy of exile - Dieu est né en exil (1960), Le chevalier de la résignation (1961) and ¡Perseguid a Boecio! (1983) - the small-sized novel Le voyage à San Marcos (1972) acts as an exemplary attestation to this pompous conjunction. The current article focuses especially on the text’s trans-temporal valence

The traditional interpretation of Eleatism has it (1) that Melissus was a disciple of Parmenides (albeit with some divergences) and (2) that Parmenides believed in the timeless eternity of Being. It seems, on the contrary, (3) that Melissus acknowledged the reality of time by conceiving eternity as infinite time. Failing to justify this particular divergence from Parmenides’ approach, certain authors held that it was necessary to reinterpret the Melissan eternity as a form of infinite timelessness. This paper attempts to demonstrate that this reading is groundless and that if the traditional interpretation is questioned then one should reconsider the assumptions (1) and (2) but not (3).

Sophocles’ second Oedipus-play clearly relates to the first; it holds, however, a particular place in literary history, for it was the last play to be included into the canon of classical Attic tragedy. Moreover, the play shows another peculiarity: though the idea that death can be preferable to life is familiar to all Sophoclean protagonists, Oedipus was the only one allowed to get old, a process depicted quite realistically by old Sophocles. Oedipus’ self-explanation, however, that he suffered himself more than he really acted, resembles much a Catch-22 situation: if that were the case in those days, as Oedipus says that it was, he then was crazy and didn’t have to do what he did; but if he didn’t want to do what he did then, he was sane and had to do it, because the gods wanted him to do it. The proposed new reading of the play shows how time and age work on Oedipus’ frame of mind: a desire for whitewashing is acted out in a blame-game, awareness of what is to come is coupled with rather a hesitant manner as though he is slightly unsure of himself (what he is not), and eventually, being out of touch with time and fearing to be left alone make Oedipus curse, for he had been treated unjustly: Oedipus comes close to Shakespeare’s King Lear, though he does not go mad, he only becomes bad and dangerous to know.

Wbrew popularnemu powiedzeniu, czas rzadko jest pieniądzem, co wynika z jego niejednoznacznej i trudnej do uchwycenia natury. Liczne różnice pomiędzy czasem i pieniędzmi powodują, że zasoby te nie są ekwiwalentne. Konsumenci łatwiej księgują pieniądze niż czas, który cenią mniej niż swoje finanse. Decyzje konsumentów dotyczące czasu opierają się na heurystykach, ponieważ postrzegana wartość czasu jest relatywna i zależy od wielu czynników kontekstualnych.

The article discusses the crucial differences between money and time, which are not similar, nor equivalent to consumers. The characteristic of time versus money were analyzed, as well as the principles of time and money accounting. Accounting for time is difficult to consumers, who rely on heuristics to make rather inconsistent and situation–dependent choices. Still rather limited literature on time accounting and valuation suggests that consumers value money more, as is easier to account for. The value of time is relative and is rarely reflected on.

I argue that the following two claims provide us with sufficiently strong reason to conclude that God came into existence from nothing a finite time in the past: (1) that God is omnitemporal; and (2) that there is a first moment of time. After defending the possibility of God beginning to exist ex nihilo from various objections, I critique two alternative attempts at providing an account of the relationship between an omnitemporal God and the beginning of time (that of Alan Padgett and William Lane Craig). I show that these either fail to be an alternative to my own model or are less supported by the relevant evidence.

The basic concept in the philosophy of Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker is the concept of time. Playing the dominant role in the thought and philosophy of Weizsäcker, the concept is the point of departure for an attempt to find ways to cognize and recreate the unity of Nature, to understand “the unity of physics” and its reconstruction in the neo-Kantian spirit, as well as seek and analyse conditions of the possibilities of science and its ethical dimension. In this context Weizsäcker analyses relations between the structure of time and the ethical responsibility of a man practising science. The present study aims to demonstrate the basic elements of this relation as the foundation of the ethics of scientific research. Responsible scientific research is only possible when men operating within the field are guided by objective principles of the ethics of responsibility.

In the classical Christian theological understanding, God and time are tightly interwoven (e.g. time and eternity, the Incarnation, and liturgy) and inform how we comprehend the presence and absence of the Incomprehensible in our day-to-day lives. Yet the classical Christian understanding of temporality does not take into account scientific discoveries pertaining to time, and how this influences our experience of temporality. It is within the fabric of God and time that this paper will bring together the concept of time in event phenomenology and biology, namely genetics, to construct a more robust understanding of temporality, a genetic-event model of temporality, that avoids the classical Christian issues of temporal/eternal antinomy, mind soul location, metaphysics of transcendence, or transcendental epistemology. Thus, providing an original approach to how we think about God today in a culture that seeks answers from science, as well as religion. This paper will discuss the usefulness of the geneticevent model in theology, in science, and in the dialogue between theology and science, demonstrating that these two ways of knowing can benefit each other.

On 20 May 2011, the Time weekly published a special report issue in its entirety covering the killing of Osama bin Laden. Clearly, owing to its thematic coherence, the Time Special Report issue could be examined through the lenses of qualitative content analysis tools. This paper, however, applies Goffman’s Frame Analysis. Based on two basic assumptions: (1) that the “frame” amounts to the structured knowledge and (2) that the language of media reports is never neutral, but highly constructed, the paper argues that the examined Time issue is fundamentally built on three frames: the “war on terror” frame, the “hero” vs. the “enemy no. 1” frame and, finally, the “indestructible USA” vs. the “primitive, yet promising Islamic countries” frame. In addition, drawing on the cognitive concepts of figure/ground organization and focalization, as well as the notion of metaphor, it investigates how the above distinguished frames are manipulated and modified.

Interdyscyplinarność gerontologii społecznej zachęca do sięgania po dorobek różnych nauk, których instrumentarium może być pomocne w pogłębianiu wiedzy na temat starości. W prezentowanym artykule proponowanym źródłem inspiracji dla badań nad starością jest kategoria czasu. Ukazane zostaje podstawowe znaczenie tej kategorii w nawiązaniu do myśli filozoficznej, dotychczasowego wykorzystania jej w badaniach nad starością. Przegląd ma charakter sygnalizujący konteksty filozoficzne, bez osadzania tych pojęć w kontekstach historii filozofii. Dodatkowo zostaje ona uszczegółowiona w obszarach i pytaniach, które mogą zainspirować badaczy kwestii starości do wykorzystywania kategorii czasu zarówno jako kanwy badawczej, jak też interpretacyjnej.

Tresmontant has never explicitly dealt with the interpretation of the concepts of body and corporeality in his work. He was, however, very interested in the philosophy of creation and the biblical interpretations. In this work we systematically organized his anthropological thoughts and present them as a logically organized framework that characterizes his perception of body and flesh as anthropological categories. Despite the fact that Tresmontant based his arguments on the classical metaphysical and biblical interpretation of various texts, we suggest that they still represent a comprehensive modern theological anthropology.

In this paper examples of periphrasis of the words “Anno Domini” are presented. The phrases were selected from the title pages of old prints that were published in the 16th and 17th centuries and indexed in Bibliografia Staropolska of Karol Estreicher. The expressions analyzed in the article are particularly distinguished by the inventiveness of their authors and considered especially interesting due to their aesthetics and contexts. A part of this article is devoted to an analysis of chronograms. The scientific reflection referenced in this paper can be treated as prolegomena to further researches, since this phenomenon has thus far been the subject of little study and thus needs to be further analyzed from the theological, literary, and linguistic perspectives. Philological considerations presented in the article are based on intertextual references and reflect the biblical, patristic, and sensu largo cultural contexts.

W artykule zostały zaprezentowane i zinterpretowane peryfrazy wyrażenia „Anno Domini” umieszczone na stronach tytułowych XVII- i XVIII-wiecznych druków indeksowanych w Bibliografii Staropolskiej Karola Estreichera. Do interpretacji zostały wybrane zarówno peryfrazy odznaczające się walorami literackimi, jak i interesujące z uwagi na konteksty, aluzje, konotacje. Wśród prezentowanych wyrażeń znalazły się także chronogramy. Podjętą w szkicu naukową refleksję na temat tego fenomenu wydawniczego można potraktować jako prolegomena do kolejnych badań, ponieważ temat wydaje się wart zainteresowania. Krytyczne spojrzenie z perspektywy teologicznej, literaturoznawczej, lingwistycznej na nieopracowany dotychczas materiał może przyczynić się do poszerzenia wiedzy na temat kultury religijnej dawnych Polaków.
